The Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) has been chosen as a mentor civic body under the Swachh Shehar Jodi programme to guide five urban local bodies (ULBs) in Odisha — Kendrapada, Deogarh, Bargarh, Pattamundai, and Joda.

Part of a nationwide initiative involving 75 mentor cities, the programme seeks to improve sanitation standards across India by sharing best practices, strengthening waste management systems, and supporting the development of waste processing infrastructure.

100-Day Time-Bound Plan

The programme will run for 100 days, with a focus on visible cleanliness, citizen participation, and outcome-oriented sanitation measures. It is also expected to positively influence Swachh Bharat survey rankings for both mentor and mentee cities.
