Panchkula, May 20: Mrs. Simarjit Kaur, Joint Commissioner of the Panchkula Municipal Corporation, conducted a surprise inspection of Sectors 9, 15, and 19 today. During the visit, she reviewed sanitation systems, secondary collection points, and Garbage Vulnerable Points (GVPs).
While inspecting roads and internal streets, she directed the concerned officials to ensure prompt repair of damaged roads and street infrastructure. Emphasising improved sanitation standards, she instructed Assistant Sanitary Inspectors (ASIs) and sanitation staff to ensure regular and timely cleaning of all designated points to prevent any accumulation of waste or filth.
During the inspection, Simarjit Kaur also reviewed the special collection boxes installed at the Municipal Corporation office under the “Zero Waste” and “Plastic-Free Panchkula” initiatives. These boxes have been placed within the office premises to encourage officials, employees, and visitors to deposit used plastic bottles and other plastic waste, supporting proper collection, recycling, and environmentally responsible disposal.
On this occasion, she also observed decorative green installations made from old tyres, along with well-maintained plantation arrangements across the inspected sites. The Joint Commissioner directed officials to further strengthen recycling and waste management initiatives alongside routine cleanliness efforts in the city, with the aim of enhancing environmental conservation.
Simarjit Kaur stated that keeping Panchkula clean, green, and pollution-free remains the primary objective of the Panchkula Municipal Corporation. She instructed all officials and employees to carry out their duties with full dedication and responsibility. She also appealed to citizens to cooperate with the Municipal Corporation in maintaining cleanliness and to dispose of waste only at designated collection points.
One of the waste collection bins installed on the premises was fabricated by Arjun and donated to the Corporation by the Meshaan Foundation, as part of ongoing support for cleanliness and waste management initiatives.
