Bittu Tabahi hits back at Dhruv Rathee for criticising MP CM meeting: ‘Not about credit, issue is civic sense’
Commending the young boy during their meeting, the MP chief minister highlighted how solitary dedication can drive deep civic impact.
Bittu Tabahi, a 20-year-old Indian student, has become an international sensation for cleaning the polluted Ajnar River in Biaora, Madhya Pradesh. The teenager began the cleanup on Republic Day, armed only with a shovel and his determination. His efforts, captured in photographs, prompted the Madhya Pradesh government to hold a meeting with Bittu, which was later shared on social media by Chief Minister Mohan Yadav.
However, YouTuber Dhruv Rathee criticized the meeting, accusing the government of merely seeking credit for Bittu's work. In response, Bittu clarified that the meeting's purpose was to promote civic responsibility, not to seek political recognition. The Chief Minister commended Bittu for his efforts, emphasizing that individual dedication can lead to significant societal change.
