Firstpost  

The finance minister said some months ago Prime Minister Narendra Modi had met Amma and she had expressed the desire to contribute to one of major national initiatives. Kollam, Kerala: Stressing the need to preserve Ganga river which symbolises the country’s culture and heritage, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today made a fervent plea to Indians across the world to contribute to the Namami Ganga and Swacch Bharat campaigns of the Centre. Lauding Mata Amritanandamayi for her contribution, Jaitley said, “It will send a message across the world that those committed to the cause should contribute.” “It is not merely government contributions that will go from the budget, this is one campaign which which has become much more than governmental campaign,” he said. “Therefore this gigantic step taken by Amma today is going to send both a material and also a symbolic message to everyone who is concerned with Ganga across the world,” he said.
