The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is actively participating in the ‘Swachhata Hi Seva' initiative on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of Swachh Bharat Mission by organising various activities across Metro Stations, residential colonies, construction sites, and depots.

DMRC employees, their family members and construction site workers participated in ‘shram daan’ at about 110 locations to support the ‘Jan Andolan’ movement for a cleaner India.  A zero-waste street food fest was also organised at the Noida staff quarters. Additionally, DMRC has adopted 70 Cleanliness Target Units (CTUs) outside its premises for a cleaner environment near Metro stations, depots and residential colonies.

To mark the campaign, DMRC also hosted a cultural program, with live music performances by employees and residents of DMRC’s staff quarters. The event emphasized the importance of community participation in cleanliness drives and fostered a sense of solidarity among participants.

Dr. Vikas Kumar, MD of DMRC, shared a video message across the metro network urging passengers to actively participate in the ‘Swachhata Hi Seva’ campaign. He emphasized that this initiative aligns with DMRC's commitment to cleanliness and hygiene, encouraging everyone to contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable environment for future generations.

The Swachhata Hi Seva (SHS) campaign is being observed from 17th September to 2nd October with focus to inspire voluntary 'shram daan' activities to instil a sense of collective responsibility for cleanliness among the citizens. The 2024 theme for the Swachhata hi Seva campaign is “Swabhav Swachhata, Sanskar Swachhata”.
