Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has hailed Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's initiative "Namami Devi Narmade" Narmada Seva Yatra, which aims at making the Narmada river free of pollution.
 
Amitabh tweeted on Wednesday: "Namami Devi Narmade, Narmada Sewa Yatra legendary campaign initiated by MP's CM to make river Narmada pollution free. It will surely help in spreading awareness among people across India to wake up and start conserving their life-giving rivers."
