Coal Ministry gears up for ‘Special Campaign 5.0’ cleanliness drive

2025-09-25

The Ministry of Coal has recently intensified preparations for Special Campaign 5.0—scheduled from 2 to 31 October 2025—to institutionalise swachhata and reduce pendency in government offices. The ongoing preparatory phase, from 15 to 30 September 2025, has included three coordination meetings with nodal officers (held on 26.08.2025, 04.09.2025 and 19.09.2025) to reinforce campaign goals and deliverables.

Across the Ministry, CPSEs, the CCO and CMPFO are identifying priority sites for cleanliness drives, disposing of scrap and redundant items, streamlining space, and improving record management. Teams are also fast-tracking pending references, grievances and appeals, with an emphasis on transparency and service efficiency.

On 18.09.2025, officials inspected the record room at Lok Nayak Bhavan to drive systematic categorisation and weeding of outdated files—freeing valuable space and improving accessibility for frontline work. Field-level outreach has included a cleanliness-themed nukkad natak by CIL at Kumartuli, Kolkata; NCL’s Safai Mitra Suraksha Shivir in Jhingurda Area; and creative initiatives from rangoli making at Kusunda Area (BCCL), SECL HQ (Chhattisgarh) and WCL’s Manjri Area (Nagpur), to painting competitions for children at WCL’s Majri and Wani Areas. These activities aim to embed a culture of cleanliness, safety and community ownership.
