Section 7: SS2019 DASHboard 203 C. Parthasarathy VI VII Ye ar s of 9 Cele br ating The Ma ha tm a Executive Summary he primary goal of all Swachh Survekshans is to encourage large scale citizen participation and create T awareness amongst all sections of society about the importance of working together towards making towns and cities a better place to live in. Additionally, these surveys also intend to foster a spirit of healthy competition among towns and cities to improve their service delivery to citizens, and thus steadily moving towards creating cleaner cities. As a prelude to encouraging cities to improve urban sanitation, Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban) of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs had conducted ‘Swachh Survekshan-2016’ for the rating of 73 Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) in January 2016. This was scaled up to cover and rank 434 ULBs in the following year. In 2018, in a bid to scale up the coverage of the ranking exercise and encourage towns and cities to actively implement mission initiatives in a timely and innovative manner, SBM – U had mandated that Swachh Survekshan 2018 covers all ULBs and cantonment boards in the country. This had elicited participation from 4203 ULBs and CBs, covering all states and UTs in the country (barring Lakshadweep). The current Swachh Survekshan, which spanned from 4th of January to 31st of January 2019, has covered a total of 4237 ULBs and Cantonment Boards from all states and UTs, barring the state of West Bengal who had opted not to participate. While in 2018 the ranking of the ULBs was separately done for those with a population of one lakh or more (national ranking) and those below one lakh (state and zonal rankings) with a total of 55 award categories, in 2019, with a view to recognizing good work done by the smaller ULBs towards realizing the dream of a Swachh India, the population categories have been increased to six, viz. greater than 10 lakhs, 3 - 10 lakhs, 1 – 3 lakhs (where a total of 425 ULBs competed for 23 award categories), and 50,000 – 1 lakh, 25,000 – 50,000 and less than 25,000 (where 3750 ULBs competed for 95 zonal awards). In addition, there are seven awards exclusively meant for the 62 Cantonment Boards, six awards meant to recognize outstanding performances by states as a whole, three special category awards for recognizing outstanding citizen-led initiatives towards Swachh Bharat, and three more for the top three Ganga towns.
