The 'Safai Seva Marathon 2026' has mobilized a massive city-wide cleanliness effort, rallying around 9,000 sanitation workers and officials. Municipal Commissioner Om Kasera spearheaded the initiative from Ward No. 83 in Malviya Nagar, emphasizing the significance of on-ground inspections and boosting the morale of the sanitation staff.
Some concerning issues, including workers at the Talkatora water body working without life jackets, were brought to light, prompting a call for improved safety measures. Commissioner Kasera encouraged residents to practice responsible waste disposal and instructed zone authorities to enhance sanitation efforts.
