In a small town of Madhya Pradesh, the Ajnar River was once heavily polluted. But today it is gradually becoming clean again. This change is the result of the hard work of a 20-year-old man, Bittu. Initially, he urged local residents to join in cleaning the river and even considered that a machine could make the task easier. However, neither idea succeeded. So he single-handedly started on his mission. Even after suffering infections in his hands and feet during the cleaning process, Bittu has continued his mission.
