Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar launched the toolkit for 9th edition of Swachh Survekshan.
The toolkit for 9th edition of Swachh Survekshan (SS), the world’s largest urban cleanliness survey, has been launched.
Swachh Survekshan was launched by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs in 2016.
In 2024, a special category – Super Swachh League has been introduced for a separate league of cities excelling in cleanliness.
For the very first time, the cities have been classified into 5 population categories: Very Small, Small, Medium, Big, and Million-Plus.
In this year, Cleanliness Target Units (CTUs) and adopting Swabhav Swachhata Sanskaar Swachhata – behaviour change in daily lives have been included in the assessment.
There are 12 cities in the Super Swachh League. Top 3 ranking cities in each population category will move into the league for the subsequent years.
