CM Shinde launched a cleaning drive in Mumbai and Thane recently, and he later directed the PMC and other civic bodies in the state to carry out a similar programme to clean the city with high-pressure water. The local administration is geared up to carry out the directive.

Additional municipal commissioner Kunal Khemnar stated, “We held a meeting with senior PMC officials and instructed them to implement a cleanliness drive. All zonal commissioners and ward officers were present at the briefing.”

During his visit to Nashik last week, Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged citizens to keep religious places and towns clean.

Against this backdrop, CM Shinde urged municipal commissioners, district collectors, and Zilla Parishad officers to take up a deep cleaning campaign in both rural and urban areas across the state.
