Maharashtra gets Rs 135 crore for Swachh Bharat

MUMBAI: Union minister of urban development Venkaiah Naidu on Saturday called for people, public, private partnerships (PPPP) to develop Indian cities. He allotted Rs 135 crore as a first instalment for Maharashtra towards individual and community toilet and solid waste management under the 'Swachh Bharat' campaign.

Speaking at the 'Consultative Workshop on Urban Governance', in the city, the minister outlined the reforms needed to be taken at the city- and state-level in terms of working with transparency by digitalization of records and assets.

Pointing out that Swachh Bharat Abhyan has the mission of providing sanitation facilities for all 4,041 statutory towns in the country over the next 5 years, Naidu said this task would need taking local icons, corporate entities, and people on board to make it a success.

Responding to CM Devendra Fadnavis's request to look at schemes left incomplete under JNNURM, Naidu said the matter was before the cabinet. He also said that funds will be made available to cities based on their performance. For this, he said the Centre was planning to start rating of cities on different counts. He urged municipal commissioners to take up practices of fixing solar panels on rooftops, rainwater harvesting and solid waste management in cities.
