New Delhi, 14 June 2022: The L-G Delhi on Tuesday launched a cleanliness campaign in the national capital that will involve various agencies.
The officials stated that the Governor Saxena started the campaign by cleaning at the Batra Cinema Complex at Mukherjee Nagar Area in Northwest Delhi. The cleanliness drive will primarily focus on the public places that were not given attention in the regular cleanliness drives. The MCD has decided to deploy adequate workers and machines to these areas and dedicate 100% effort at the same time, according to sources.
L-G Saxena also emphasised in his address that sanitation employees may be on the bottom end of the social ladder, but they perform vital labour in keeping our cities clean, which enhances their status in society.
The Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal also encouraged the MPs, MLAs and the public to be a part of the cleanliness drive with the thought that together they have to make New Delhi clean.
Several political leaders were present at the event including BJP MP Manoj Tiwari, Delhi Chief Secretary Naresh Kumar, Special Officer of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) Ashwini Kumar, Municipal Commissioner Gyanesh Bharti and other senior officials.
