Sharing news reports about the work done by the boxing star and Naidu, Modi said: "A very good effort by Venkaiah (ji), to clean beaches in cyclone-affected Visakhapatnam."

Like Modi, who went to Jammu and Kashmir to celebrate Diwali with the flood-affected, Naidu also went to Visakhapatnam, hit by cyclon 'Hudhud'.

Besides, Modi applauded religious guru Raghavendra Matha for taking up the clean India initiative.

"The effort by (Sri) Raghavendra Matha is a landmark effort, which is an important step towards a Clean India." Modi said in another tweet.
