The Mumbai Central Division of Western Railway has ramped up its efforts as part of the nationwide "Swachhata Hi Seva" 2026 campaign, which aims to promote cleanliness, waste management, and civic awareness. Over a four-day period from September 21st to 24th, 2026, the division engaged in extensive clean-up drives, waste segregation, and public awareness initiatives across its stations, depots, and residential colonies.
The campaign collected over 10 tonnes of segregated waste, including wet, dry, special-care, and sanitary waste. Key activities included cleaning at the Coach Care Centre in Surat, where 200 kg of waste was removed and handed over to Surat Municipal authorities, and door-to-door awareness drives in 158 households. Public participation was integral to the campaign, with community outreach, Shramdaan, and interactive competitions aimed at promoting the 3R principle of Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.
The initiative also focused on the welfare of sanitation workers and the elimination of single-use plastics.
