Keeping our cities clean is not just the responsibility of the government, but of every citizen. To make this easier, the Government of India launched the Swachhata App under the Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban). The app is available across India, including all urban areas in Telangana, and connects directly with local municipal bodies for faster grievance redressal.
What is the Swachhata App?
The Swachhata App is a mobile platform developed by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. It allows citizens to report civic issues in their neighborhood through their smartphone. Once a complaint is registered, it is forwarded to the concerned municipal officials for quick action.
Key Features
- Report problems like uncollected garbage, overflowing dustbins, street sweeping not done, or debris from construction.
