Swachh Survekshan

Swachh Survekshan is an annual cleanliness survey conducted in India as part of the Swachh Bharat Mission, which aims to promote cleanliness and sanitation across the country. It assesses urban local bodies based on various indicators like waste management, public toilets, and citizen feedback on cleanliness. Cities are ranked, encouraging competition and improvement in sanitation practices. Launched in 2016, it has become a key tool for measuring progress in urban cleanliness and engaging communities towards a cleaner environment. The results guide government policies and initiatives to enhance urban living conditions.
