In addition to cleanliness checks, BMC staff from the health department and SBM (Swachh Bharat Mission) accompanied the survey team throughout the process.
After the day’s inspection, the team plans to continue its efforts by monitoring cleaning activities at night to ensure comprehensive oversight.
Surprise inspection at Karishma Park
A surprise inspection at Karishma Park in Zone-7 was done by the team when BMC cleaning workers were seen collecting garbage during the afternoon.
Upon arrival, the team discovered that two out of three garbage bins were missing from the park’s rack. A BMC worker quickly removed the third bin before the team could take photographs, raising suspicions that the missing bins may have been stolen.
