He exhorted people to submit feedback on a link provided by the Ministry. “The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, has provided an online link for submitting feedback. Anyone can submit their feedback,” said the Commissioner.

This year’s Swachh Survekshan is covering various parameters such as cleanliness, beautification, garbage-free city star rating, open defecation-free status and water plus category.

After selecting language, the citizens could start the survey giving answers to 10 questions related to cleanliness and waste management in their areas. The questions will be related to collection of garbage, rating of cleanliness, garbage dumps, segregation of waste at source and others. After completing the survey, citizens have to enter the OTP received on the mobile and click ‘submit’ to submit the feedback.
