Honorable Speaker Sumitra Mahajanji, while addressing the gathering said, “Deepak Chaurasia has written an inspirational book, which is an extension of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Swacch Bharat mission.” She said “waste management is part of our culture which we are slowly forgetting.

He has written this book which I believe is a guide for the future. I hope others will follow his example.”

    Cabinet Minister Mr. Nitin Gadkari who is passionate about such issues remarked…waste if managed properly is worth a 10 lakh crore economy.

A proper management can change the entire economy of the country.

    Published by Prabhat Prakashan, Veteran Journalist for 25 years and first-time author of ‘Kuda Dhan’ Mr. Deepak Chaurasia added, “the issue of cleanliness and environment has had the most provocative impact on my thought process. Heaps and heaps of garbage and waste and its impact on human health have become a matter of great concern for me. During Diwali last year, when the air quality of Delhi was severely affected I decided to dig out a solution to this monster- called waste. I started to study about all types of waste and the available technology and their applications around the world. My approach was positive. I didn’t want to question or blame anyone for the situation, instead, I was focusing on finding solutions.”

       Several prominent persons were present to grace the book launch event and received a warm welcome by Shri Prabhat Kumar and Dr. Piyush Kumar of Prabhat Prakashan. Mr. Karthikeya Sharma Promoter and MD of ITV network were also present at the event.
