‘Swachh Bharat movement started a decade ago, but...’: Kiran Shaw backs Suhel Seth's call for better, cleaner cities
Both Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw and Suhel Seth have been very vocal about the condition of the cities they live in — often bashing the administrations for the lack.
Biocon chairperson Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw endorsed Suhel Seth's call for a national movement to improve city cleanliness, following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 2014 Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. While Bengaluru has been focusing on a clean city drive, Shaws stressed the need for sustained behavioral changes to ensure lasting impact on urban cleanliness.
Seth had been vocal about the state of cities, asking people to share photos and videos of urban problems on WhatsApp for him to amplify publicly. In his July 2026 book 'WTF India: Are We Losing the Plot?', Seth also encouraged citizens to improve their living conditions by joining hands for a real change.
