The city of Vijaywada has been seeking ways to improve sanitation and management of cleanliness to keep a hold on the clean outlook of the city. The VMC has been constantly working for the betterment of the above.

The Vijayawada municipal corporation has decided to develop model divisions in the city and initiate special sanitation and beautification drives in the selected divisions as part of the program.

The city achieved India’s ‘cleanest big city’ award in Swachh Survekshan 2020 and the VMC hopes to improve the ranking by making the city litter and garbage-free.

The model division concept would be implemented in two divisions each in the city’s three assembly constituencies.

Division numbers 4, 10, 27, 36, 39, and 42 have been selected for the project. The underground drainage system, open side drains, water supply, garbage dumping, door-to-door segregated garbage collection, on-site composting, and greenery development will be taken up in these model divisions.

VMC commissioner Prasanna Venkatesh on Wednesday conducted a review meeting with officials on the project.

“The concept of model divisions is to develop the residential colonies with the partnership of the public. Proper usage of drainage and cleanliness will be taken up, and awareness would be created about garbage segregation,” Venkatesh said.
