Punjab extends its Cleanliness Campaign 2.0 until September 12, with officials reporting that around 5,000 complaints have been resolved. The campaign was launched on August 29 and runs across the state’s urban local bodies.
The program covers 166 Urban Local Bodies, including 14 municipal corporations and 152 municipal councils and nagar panchayats. According to the reports, residents file complaints through the M-Seva app, and the campaign has received 6,459 complaints so far. Outlets also report the resolution figure as a central update. While coverage aligns on the extension date, scope, and complaint-handling figures, the India Today report provides less detailed specifics than the Times of India report about the complaint total and distribution of urban bodies.
Both sources frame the extension as a continuation of ongoing municipal cleanliness efforts rather than a change in strategy, emphasizing the number of complaints addressed during the campaign period.
