In Thane, October 9, 2026, the Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has launched the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan, a month-long initiative encompassing health camps, cleanliness drives, and school competitions. This program aims to provide direct benefits to local residents, women, children, and students.

Additionally, TMC organized specialized health screenings targeting women and children's well-being.

The Majiwada – Manpada Ward Committee emphasized environmental balance and community outreach alongside health services. They led a citywide Plastic-Free Awareness Campaign, educating residents about the dangers of single-use plastics. Workshops were held to inform local women about government welfare and development schemes, helping eligible families access financial and social support programs.

In Diva Ward Committee, TMC teams conducted neighborhood cleanliness drives, including a focused sanitation campaign at TMC School No. 87 in Vetal Pada, Desai. To encourage youth participation, local schools hosted creative competitions. For instance, Mumbra Devi Colony organized an open drawing competition for neighbourhood children, while TMC School No. 87 hosted an elocution competition based on the national theme, My Dream India (Viksit Bharat).

The Seva Sankalp Abhiyan has garnered support from local representatives, civic staff, residents, and academic institutions. Guardian School & Junior College actively participated, integrating student-led initiatives like road safety campaigns, voter awareness drives, anti-addiction programmes, tree plantation events, and artistic competitions into the initiative.
