The 'Swachhata Hi Seva Pakhwada-2026' (SHS-2026) was officially launched today at the North Central Railway (NCR) Headquarters premises, with a grand Curtain Raiser / Launch Programme. The fortnight-long campaign, scheduled from September 17 to October 2, 2026, was inaugurated by General Manager Mr. Naresh Pal Singh. All Principal Heads of Departments, senior officers, and staff members of NCR were present on the occasion. Addressing the gathering, General Manager Shri Naresh Pal Singh drew inspiration from Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi's vision of turning cleanliness into a mass movement. Emphasizing the theme "Swachhata Mein Sahbhag, Swachh Bharat, Viksit Bharat", he stated that cleanliness should not be viewed merely as an campaign, but must be adopted as a daily work culture and personal habit. He called upon everyone to maintain cleanliness across railway premises, stations, and public places, while promoting waste segregation and institutional respect for Safai Mitras. During the event, Principal Chief Mechanical Engineer Shri Anil Kumar Dwivedi briefed the attendees on the key focus areas and activities planned during the SHS fortnight. He said special emphasis will be given to five core pillars and various community-driven activities.•Five Core Pillars: Cleaning and transformation of Cleanliness Target Units (CTUs) & public places, Swachh Pathshala and youth participation, security, service & felicitation camps for Safai Mitras, public participation and Swachhata Se Samriddhi. •Key Activities: Massive tree plantation drives, "One Day, one Hour, Together" voluntary labor (Shramdaan), Waste-to-Art initiative, Cleanliness Pledge (Swachhata Shapath), zero-waste promotion in sports events, health check-ups for sanitation workers, and cleanliness drives at tourist and heritage sites. To promote widespread awareness and active involvement, a Signature Campaign and a Selfie Campaign were also organized in the leadership of GM/NCR at the venue. All officers and employees participated enthusiastically, reaffirming their commitment to creating a clean and healthy railway environment. North Central Railway remains committed to giving full visibility and momentum to the SHS-2026 campaign across all its divisions, workshops, units, and offices, striving towards the collective goal of "Clean Railway, Healthy Passenger, Clean Environment."
