Hyderabad: The GHMC sanitation drive gained pace on Day 19, covering 300 wards across Greater Hyderabad as part of Swachh Survekshan work.
Teams of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation carried out cleaning work in residential areas, markets and public places. Workers cleared garbage, swept roads and cleaned open spaces across the city. Meanwhile, senior officials checked the work on the ground to ensure smooth coordination. As a result, many areas showed clear improvement in cleanliness.
Officials said the GHMC sanitation drive aimed to make Hyderabad ready for Swachh Survekshan. They added that daily reviews helped keep the work uniform in all wards.
GHMC sanitation drive encourages public participation
Along with cleaning work, the GHMC sanitation drive focused on public involvement. Residents drew rangoli designs in colonies to spread cleanliness messages. At the same time, Residents’ Welfare Associations and housing societies took pledges to keep their areas clean.
Officials also held awareness programmes in several neighbourhoods. They asked residents to use dustbins and Swachh Autos for waste disposal. In addition, they advised people to separate wet, dry and sanitary waste at home. They also warned against throwing garbage in empty plots or on roadsides.
GHMC officials said public support remained important for the success of the GHMC sanitation drive. Therefore, they urged citizens to take part in Swachh Survekshan activities and share awareness messages. Officials said joint efforts by sanitation workers, officers and residents were helping make Hyderabad cleaner and ready for the survey.
