Indore (Madhya Pradesh): With the next edition of the Centre's Swachh Survekshan approaching, Indore Municipal Commissioner Kshitij Singhal on Monday conducted an inspection of Depalpur Nagar Parishad — the city's paired municipality under the nationwide cleanliness survey framework — taking stock of sanitation infrastructure and issuing a raft of directives to bridge gaps before evaluation teams arrive.
During the tour, Singhal visited multiple locations across residential and commercial zones to assess ground-level sanitation. He reviewed the door-to-door garbage collection mechanism, instructing officials to ensure that every household and commercial establishment participates in regular, segregated waste collection so that source-level waste separation is fully operational.
