During the campaign, JP Babbar, chief sanitary inspector Ranjit Singh, health officer Dr. Yogesh Arora, and others were present. Workers in horticulture cleared wild grass from the center of major thoroughfares.

Staff from the Streetlight Wing fixed broken streetlights in the south zone’s bazaars, streets, and major thoroughfares. According to MC Commissioner Harpreet Singh, various agencies within the municipal body have coordinated their activities to provide facilities to the citizens and revitalize the holy city.

He said that similar drives will be held often in various parts of the city. He suggested locals might make recommendations about how to make the route better. He urged the populace to separate their dry and moist garbage. Garbage should never be dumped on streets or roadways, he stressed.
