The Ministry of Women and Child Development, including all its Autonomous/Statutory Bodies, implemented Special Campaign 6.0 from October 2 to October 31, 2026, focusing on improving Swachhata (cleanliness) and disposing of pending references across the Ministry and its autonomous bodies. The campaign aimed at promoting cleanliness, streamlining work, and addressing pending grievances throughout the ministry's infrastructure.
As part of the implementation phase, states and union territories organized a dedicated special one-day event on October 30, 2026, which included large-scale cleanliness drives at field-level institutions and effective public grievance redressal through Grievance Redressal Chaupal/e-Chaupals. These grievance redressal mechanisms addressed complaints received under ministry schemes through POSHAN Tracker, PMMVY, and CPGRAMS portal.
The concerted efforts resulted in cleanliness activities being undertaken in 12,08,313 field institutions located throughout the country, including Anganwadi Centres, Child Care Institutions, Shakti Sadans, Sakhi Niwas, and Creches. During the dedicated one-day event, 51,090 grievances were disposed, demonstrating significant progress in addressing public complaints. Additionally, 5,51,653 other activities such as plantation drives and handwash messages to beneficiaries of Anganwadi and other field institutions were conducted.
The Ministry also recognized and appreciated the services of Safai Mitras and sanitation workers for their year-round contribution to maintaining clean and hygienic campuses. As a mark of appreciation, these workers were felicitated with new uniforms and awards during the campaign.
