The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs conducted Special Campaign 6 during October 2026, achieving significant results in reducing administrative pendency, strengthening record management, and promoting cleanliness in government offices. The campaign focused on disposal of pending references, redressal of public grievances, review of physical and electronic files, simplification of rules and processes, and management of e-waste.
As of 31 October 2026, the campaign successfully redressed 736 public grievances and disposed of 467 references from Members of Parliament. All PMO references were disposed of with 100 percent completion rate. Additionally, seven Parliamentary Assurances were addressed and one State Government reference was disposed of as part of efforts to reduce pendency and promote responsive administration.
The file review exercise involved examination of 25,070 files, comprising 16,217 physical files and 8,853 e-files, supporting systematic management of official records and identification of files for retention or disposal according to applicable procedures.
Cleanliness initiatives included 526 cleanliness campaigns conducted to promote cleaner workplaces. The disposal of scrap and obsolete materials, along with weeding out of old files, freed 10,551 square feet of office space for more effective utilization. Scrap disposal generated total revenue of ₹2,49,656, with ₹40,036 specifically coming from e-waste disposal. E-waste management activities covered 77 units, supporting responsible disposal of obsolete electronic materials.
The campaign also identified four rules and processes for simplification as part of the drive to improve administrative efficiency. Special Campaign 6 reinforced the importance of integrating cleanliness, timely disposal of pending matters, and systematic record management into routine office functioning, reflecting continued efforts towards efficient use of public resources and responsive, citizen-centric governance.
