Special Campaign 5.0: MoS Communications reviews cleanliness initiatives at Sanchar Bhawan

Union Minister Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani reviews Special Campaign 5.0 cleanliness initiatives, emphasizing daily hygiene for better workplace efficiency and health.

"Cleanliness should be part of our daily routine, not a one-time activity - Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani"

New Delhi, October 31

Union Minister of State for Communications, Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani, visited Sanchar Bhawan on Friday and reviewed the cleanliness measures undertaken in the premises under the Swachhata Campaign or Special Campaign 5.0, a press release from the Ministry of Communications said.

During his visit, Pemmasani toured various office areas, including corridors, work sections, and the Departmental Library, and interacted with officers and staff. He appreciated the ongoing efforts made by the Department to maintain cleanliness and improve the overall work environment.

The Union Minister of State remarked that cleanliness should be part of our daily routine, not a one-time activity, adding that a clean environment naturally leads to better health, clearer thinking, and higher efficiency.

He also noted that regular short-duration cleanliness drives help build self-awareness among employees and contribute to a positive workplace culture, the press release said.

Pemmasani highlighted that Swachhata is not merely a cleanliness drive but a step toward realising the Prime Minister's mission of a clean and developed India by 2047. He encouraged officers to continue these efforts beyond the campaign period, ensuring that the spirit of cleanliness and efficiency remains an integral part of daily functioning.

The Union Minister of State commended the collective participation of officers and staff and expressed satisfaction over the Department's proactive approach to maintaining a clean, efficient and responsive administrative ecosystem.

The Special Campaign 5.0, launched on September 15, 2025, concluded today after extensive activities across the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) and its field units, including Licensed Service Areas (LSAs), Controller of Communication Accounts (CCAs), and Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs).

As per the release, the campaign focused on cleanliness drives, space management, record weeding, and e-waste disposal, resulting in visible improvement across offices.

Meanwhile, in line with the objectives of the campaign, the Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI) identified its targets in relation to disposal of e-waste, adherence to record management and liquidation of pendency in references from PMO, MPs/State Governments, including Parliamentary Assurance, and Public Grievances/Appeals.

Good initiative but I hope this isn't just for show. Government offices need permanent cleanliness systems, not just periodic drives. The e-waste disposal part is particularly important in today's digital age.

Swachh Bharat should start from government offices themselves. Happy to see ministers taking personal interest. Clean environment = productive workforce! 🇮🇳

As someone who visited Sanchar Bhawan last month, I can say it definitely needed this cleanup drive. Hope they maintain the standards now. The library area was particularly dusty.

Cleanliness drives are good but what about the pending files and delayed services? Hope they focus on efficiency too. Still, better than doing nothing! 👍

Impressed by the comprehensive approach - from physical cleanliness to e-waste management and record weeding. This is how modern governance should work. Hope other ministries follow suit.

The minister is right - cleanliness should be part of daily routine, not just campaign-based. Small regular efforts beat massive occasional cleanups any day! 🧹✨
