Punjab’s cleanliness drive, Mission Clean Punjab, commenced its second phase today in Ludhiana, aiming to enhance waste management and public hygiene.
Ludhiana witnessed the inauguration of the second phase of Mission Clean Punjab on Tuesday, marking the continuation of the state government's effort to improve urban sanitation. State officials oversaw the event, emphasizing the need for sustained community participation in keeping the city clean.
The new phase expands the scope of waste segregation, introduces additional dustbins in high‑traffic areas, and launches awareness campaigns targeting schools and local businesses. Municipal teams will also conduct regular street‑cleaning drives and monitor compliance with the updated cleanliness guidelines.
Authorities expect the initiative to reduce littering and illegal dumping, thereby improving public health and the overall aesthetic of Ludhiana. The program is slated to run for the next six months, with periodic assessments to gauge progress and identify areas for further intervention.
The first phase, launched earlier this year, reported measurable improvements in waste collection efficiency and citizen satisfaction. Building on those results, the second phase seeks to institutionalize best practices across all wards of the city.
