As part of “Honoring The Honorable” initiative of the World Humanitarian Drive (WHD), Founder Abdul Basit Syed, said “Global Humanitarian Awards 2020” were recently announced to felicitate popular men and women, who’ve worked selflessly towards the greater good of the society and the world.
Awardee Sachin Awasthi firmly believes in the spirit of humanity. In his words, “Beyond any social work, you should first be human. It matters even if you are able to help a single human in need. Whenever I see suffering around, I never miss a chance to do my best to mitigate the suffering.” Awardee of this Award Sachin Awasthi was also appreciated by PM Narendra Modi for organizing a 5-days Clean Ganga Awareness Yatra, “Vande Gange Swachhata Jan Jagran Yatra”, which was taken out from Haridwar to Varanasi. Which was considered to be one of the biggest initiatives in terms of public awareness about keeping the holy Ganga river pollution-free.
In Past showing his responsibility of Humanity, Sachin also took a bleeding police officer and saved his life, who was lying injured on a roadside after an accident, to hospital in his car and was praised for his timely intervention, which saved the cop’s life. However, that is just the tip of an iceberg as far as Sachin’s social consciousness and activities are concerned. Some of his notable initiatives for the society are as follows -
1. He took forward PM Modi’s dream project, “Swachh Bharat” with his campaign, “Swachh Bharat – Sunder Bharat Mission”, becoming, in this process, the first NGO head also to launch the Swachhata toll free number. Under this mission, Sachin took help from regional volunteers within Uttar Pradesh and inspired a lot of people to join hands with him and contribute to the PM’s vision.

One of most outstanding events that he has organized, first Swachhata Awards in UP, which saw presence of Yogi Adityanath, Chief Minister Uttar Pradesh along with cabinet ministers from the Central and State governments.

3. His organization, NMC, has also won a place in the Limca Book of Records, for training Swachhata Messenger Swayam Mishra of Gonda District in UP. It might be imperative to mention here that Gonda was judged as the most unclean city in the country under the Swachhata survey. Swayam traveled for 16+ days, covering 11 states and 3500kms for the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, to create public awareness among lakhs of people regarding keeping cleanliness in day-to-day life. This young man has also been awarded by the former Governor of UP and the Union HRD Minister along with Mr. Sachin Awasthi.

8. On the occasion of Hindi Patrakarita Diwas 2020, on May 30, he conducted a National Webinar, which was attended by several journalists online. In this webinar, the participants paid tribute to senior journalist, Shri Pankaj Kulshreshtha, who succumbed to Corona virus in Agra, earlier this year.
