  • Hema Malini hails MP government for maintaining Narmada river
Veteran actress and politician Hema Malini has hailed the government and people of Madhya Pradesh for maintaining the beauty of Narmada river.
 
"Hats off to the government and people of MP who have maintained the beauty of the Narmada and are carefully preventing any deterioration of the river," the Bhartiya Janata Party MP tweeted on Thursday.
 
She is currently shooting on the banks of Narmada and she can't stop praising the river's beauty.
 
"Shooting here on the banks of the beautiful Narmada! What serene beauty, no garbage pile up on the banks. Everything clean as far as the eye can see," she wrote without sharing any other detail about her project though a few days back she had expressed her excitement to play Gautami in the Telugu film "Gautamiputra Satakarni".
 
The Lok Sabha member from Mathura also compared the Narmada river to Yamuna. 
 
"My mind's eye is comparing this beauty to my Yamuna, struggling to flow amidst all the pollution in Vrindavan, Mathura. What a contrast! But soon I'm sure the scene will change for the better with Narendra Modi on the same wavelength giving importance to cleanse all rivers and save them," she shared on Twitter.
 
"Work has already started on this massive project and has been inaugurated with the Yamuna in Mathura. Dream of the people here will be fulfilled soon," she promised.
