Mumbai: After multiple unsuccessful attempts to stop waste dumping in nullahs, the BMC has launched a citizen awareness and cleanliness drive. A special campaign will be conducted from September 29 to October 13 across the city and suburbs to remove floating waste from nullahs. The key objective is to collect and properly dispose of debris with the active participation of citizens.

Systematic Cleaning Operations

As part of its special cleanliness drive, the BMC will carry out systematic cleaning of major nullahs (excluding mangrove areas), surrounding areas, and open drains across all civic wards. The operation, running daily from 11 AM to 1 PM, will involve staff from the Solid Waste Management (SWM) and Storm Water Drain department (SWD) voluntary workers, and citizen participation.
