This outstanding success has been made possible under the valuable guidance and leadership of MLA Laisam Simai, with the support and supervision of Deputy Commissioner R. D. Thungon, Director, ULB, Hano Takka, and Chief Engineer Taring Darang.
The monitoring, coordination and execution of various cleanliness and sanitation initiatives were effectively carried out by George Joseph, Executive Engineer, Urban Development and Housing, Jairampur Division, along with his dedicated team. Their continuous efforts, commitment and effective implementation of various initiatives played a significant role in achieving this milestone.
The active cooperation and wholehearted participation of the people of Jairampur, sanitation workers, local stakeholders and the general public have been equally instrumental in this remarkable accomplishment.
The award ceremony was held at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi, on 11 November, where the President of India, Droupadi Murmu, presented awards recognising outstanding cleanliness initiatives across the country.
This recognition is not merely an award but a symbol of teamwork, responsible citizenship, effective administration and people's participation. Jairampur's achievement stands as an inspiration for other towns across Arunachal Pradesh to adopt cleaner, greener and more sustainable urban practices.
