National Webinar "Swachhata Ke 6 Saal: Bemisaal" held yesterday on Bapu's 151st birth anniversary threw up a treasure-trove of learnings in sanitation & waste management from across India. 
We have focused/ need to focus on 3R: Reduce, Reuse & Recycle leading to less load on cities to process the waste & improve sustainability.
Segregation at source is the key to sustainable waste management.

Home composting & compulsory treatment of wet waste by Bulk Generators reduces the load significantly. Decentralised composting helps further in getting rid of huge land-fills in rural/ peri-urban areas.
As we complete the 6th year of SBM-U on the 151st birth anniversary of #MahatmaGandhi, we reflected on activities that have made #SwachhBharat a Jan Andolan. Was delighted to participate in Inaugural Session chaired by Hon’bl MoS at National Webinar on #SwachhataKe6SaalBemisaal
We have travelled an exciting journey in achieving the #Swachhata parameters to pay a befitting tribute to Bapu, who during his life time, espoused wholeheartedly swachhata & never hesitated to pick up a broom to clean a dirty place or even a public toilet.
It is a great achievement in itself that every citizen of urban India has come together to make the dream of #SwachhBharat, envisioned by Hon’ble Prime Minister, a reality. Our streets, neighbourhoods, water bodies are cleaner; our cities & citizens healthier.
Smaller towns are constantly setting bigger standards when it comes to #Swachhata. Take the example of Jashpur Nagar, Chhattisgarh which has won the award for Cleanest City in East Zone under the population category of 25-50K.
This ULB has placed special focus on processing its wastes through vermi composting. Initiatives like ‘Garbage with Beauty’ have promoted the #3R principle across the city. The town has been certified as ODF++ and 3 Stars rated under the Garbage Free Star Rating Protocol.
Heartiest congratulations to the citizens & city officials of Jashpur Nagar!

Keeping in mind the Ministry’s efforts towards ensuring sustainability of the sanitation value chain, SS-2020 focused on waste water treatment & its reuse, along with faecal sludge treatment. Legacy waste management & remediation of landfills were also kept in focus.
I am very impressed with the enthusiastic participation of citizens in the various events organised under #SwachhataHiSeva to celebrate the 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.
After the events at India Gate, I headed straight to Noida stadium to participate in yet another event organised by Noida Authority. The India Plog Run at 100 points in Noida witnessed participation from students, residents, industries, business & NGOs of the area in big numbers.
Eco melody songs & nukkad nataks were performed by children to spread the message of #MakingCitiesPlasticFree. Over 1500 students formed a human chain with message to reduce, reuse & recycle and say NO to plastics.
Joined citizens of Delhi at India Gate where Hon’ble MoS @HardeepSPuri launched various activities under #SwachhataHiSeva being organised to commemorate the 150th Birth Anniversary of #MahatmaGandhi.
I was delighted at the large turnout even in the early hours.

We also launched a film on Google Toilet Locator. GTL is a useful application particularly for people on the move. It allows them to find the nearest Swachh public toilet.
