Well done Chandigarh for coming in 3rd, says Puri
New Delhi, May 16
Indore has emerged as the cleanest city in the country, followed by Bhopal and Chandigarh in the government’s cleanliness survey.
The results of Swachh Survekshan 2018, which aims to estimate levels of cleanliness across cities in the country, were announced by Minister of State for Housing Hardeep Singh Puri.
Jharkhand was adjudged the best performing state, followed by Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh. This year’s exercise allocated substantial weightage to the feedback from citizens.
Indore was the cleanest city last year as well, but that survey was conducted only for around 430 cities. This time it was conducted for around 4,200 cities.
The names of the worst performing cities would be announced on the day the awards are presented. — TNS
