For the success of operation badlao DC Hazaribaghhas constituted 8 teams comprising district officials, municipal council officials, staffs of municipal council, NCC cadets and police jawans. During this three day long drive the teams not only cleaned the garbage dumped in different areas of the town since long but also sprinkled bleaching powder and others chemicals to kill the microbes and suppress the bad smell.
The team also identified the persons engaged in making the town ugly and collected fine from the erring persons. In this three day long drive about Rs50 thousand was collected as fine and more than 150 persons were booked under section 133 of the CRPC act.
The role of NCC cadets in operation badlao was acclaimed by everyone in the town. The cadets not only helped the administration in making the town clean but also gave the message to the denizens to use dustbins in the houses and not to throw the garbage hither and thither.
The cadets visited almost all the houses of the town and urged the denizens to play their role in keeping the town clean.
They gave the message to everyone that don't throw the house garbage in road sides, always deposit them in the dustbins of the municipal council placed in your area. They also advised everyone to keep their campuses clean and to give attention on the spots where mosquitos can flourish.
This unique drive of district administration has got a great success and the denizens now want such type of drives time to time.
A senior citizen said that the number of persons booked under section 133 and the amount collected as fine clearly shows that most of the residents of this town want to keep their town clean and soon those who neglect it will change their habit.
