In a significant move to enhance the cleanliness of Delhi’s bustling marketplaces, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has initiated a night sweeping program across 312 markets in the city. This initiative aims to ensure that the marketplaces remain clean and hygienic, providing a pleasant experience for both shoppers and vendors.
The night sweeping initiative is part of a broader effort by the MCD to improve urban sanitation and address the challenges posed by the high footfall in these commercial areas. By conducting cleaning operations during the night, the MCD aims to minimize disruption to daily business activities while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of these markets.
Officials have stated that the program will employ advanced cleaning equipment and trained personnel to ensure thorough and efficient cleaning. The MCD is also encouraging market associations to cooperate and support this initiative for its successful implementation.
This proactive step is expected to contribute significantly to the city’s cleanliness drive, aligning with the broader Swachh Bharat Abhiyan campaign.
