A Swachh Survekshan Survey team from the central government will come to the city for inspection on Monday and stay around till Wednesday. Sihag said the residents should give their feedback to the MC on the Swachhta app, so that the city can receive good marks in the survey. MC commissioner
Rajesh Jogpal said no officer was ready to come to the
Panchkula MC. "To make the city beautiful, I had to suspend the superintending engineer and the ME from the MC," said the commissioner.
Jogpal appealed to the general public to give their support to the drive to make the city beautiful. He also said the work to install dustbins at every 500 metres in the city was under progress. Members of the third gender have been asked to shame the people caught defecating in the open.
