VIDEO of Indian PM Modi plogging at the beach before second day summit with China’s Xi goes viral
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was spotted "plogging" – picking up trash while exercising – on a beach in the southern town of Mamallapuram ahead of his second day of meetings with this Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping.
The PM took to Twitter early on Saturday with a clip of himself doing the good deed, which went viral within minutes.
“Plogging at a beach in Mamallapuram this morning. It lasted for over 30 minutes,” the Prime Minister tweeted, adding “Let us ensure our public places are clean and tidy!” and “Let us also ensure we remain fit and healthy.”
