New Delhi, November 15

The Ministry of Home Affairs has successfully conducted the Special Campaign 5.0 for the disposal of pending matters conducted from October 2 to October 31, 2025.

Inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision to institutionalise Swachhata and minimise pendency in the Government, the initiative aimed at promoting cleanliness, streamlining work, and addressing pending grievances across the Ministry and organisations under it.

Under the guidance of Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, Amit Shah, special attention was given to field and outstation offices that interface directly with the public, MHA said in a release.

Initially, 4,187 sites were identified for the Swachhata campaign; later, increased to 7,678. 119 references from Members of Parliament (MP), 199 references from state governments, 3,977 public grievances, and 718 appeals were addressed, Home Ministry said.

During the month-long special campaign, 194,522 physical files and 65,997 electronic files were reviewed. 95,186 sq. ft. of space was freed. Over Rs 3.45 crore was generated through scrap disposal. A social media campaign was also conducted to promote awareness of the Ministry's activities.

The campaign was closely monitored at the highest level, with Minister of State for Home Affairs, Bandi Sanjay Kumar, actively participating in its execution and progress review. All the Divisions of MHA, Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), and affiliated organisations enthusiastically participated in the campaign. Daily progress updates were uploaded to the SCPDM portal hosted by the Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances.

The campaign began with a preparatory phase from 15th September 2025, followed by the implementation phase from 2nd October to 31st October 2025, carried out across the Ministry and its attached/Subordinate offices nationwide.

While I appreciate the effort, I hope this isn't just another temporary campaign. We need permanent systems to prevent pendency from building up again. The real test will be whether this efficiency continues after the campaign ends.

Excellent work by MHA! The focus on field offices that directly interact with public is much needed. Maybe other ministries should also adopt similar campaigns. Clean files lead to clean governance! 🇮🇳✨

As someone who has dealt with government offices, I can say this is a welcome change. The 3,977 public grievances addressed gives me hope that my passport application might actually get processed faster now! 😊

₹3.45 crore from scrap disposal is impressive! Shows how much waste was accumulated over years. Hope this money is used for public welfare projects. More such campaigns needed across all government departments.

The transparency in reporting daily progress on the portal is commendable. This sets a good precedent for accountability in government functioning. Hope this becomes standard practice across all ministries.
