\u201cIn a previous cabinet meeting, the Hon\u2019ble Chief Minister directed us to make Tamil Nadu a cleaner state and to implement a solid waste management strategy.

For this project, the Hon\u2019ble Chief Minister allocated \u20b910 crore<\/strong> from the state budget.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To mark World Environment Day<\/strong>, approximately 1,100 government offices across 38 districts<\/strong> participated in this mass cleanup effort, focusing on identifying and collecting different types of waste. This operation officially launched today and has been progressing successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To coordinate and monitor the activities across the 38 districts, a Control Room<\/strong> has been established at the Ribbon Building of the Greater Chennai Corporation. As of now, around 300 metric tonnes of waste<\/strong> have been collected statewide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) have been issued to all district collectors to ensure proper handling and processing of the collected waste in compliance with environmental regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Deputy Chief Minister further stated that after observing how the project functions over the next two days, it will be extended to include village panchayat offices, government hospitals, colleges, and schools<\/strong> within the next 10 days<\/strong>, based on further instructions from the Hon\u2019ble Chief Minister.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
