A comprehensive review meeting on all panchayat and rural development schemes was convened by Jalpaiguri district magistrate Shama Parveen on Thursday. The meeting focused on evaluating progress across blocks and improving implementation mechanisms, particularly under the Swachh Bharat Mission (Grameen).
The Kolkata Municipal Corporation is to undertake a week-long drive in which citizens would be able to send pictures to the civic body and report about dumped garbage which would be cleared by the solid waste management (SWM) teams.
The CPI-M councillor, Ratna Roy Majumder, during the KMC House meeting today, raised questions about the SWM department, enquiring about the existing infrastructure and the steps that are being taken towards waste management before the arrival of Durga Puja.
