Entities like BIS, NCCF, NTH, LM, and RRSLs actively participated, showcasing innovative practices like vermicomposting and e-waste segregation. The Department also prioritized cleanliness outside the National Capital Region, involving 72 office premises in the campaign. They successfully resolved 12963 Public Grievances and 1407 Public Grievance Appeals from November 2022 to August 2023.
