The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), along with its subordinate offices/PSUs, will participate in Special Campaign 5.0 from October 2nd to October 31st, 2025.

This year's campaign emphasizes the scientific disposal of e-waste, adhering to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and the E-Waste Management Rules, 2022, issued by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. The drive will also ensure timely clearance of pending matters, including Service Deliveries, Parliamentary Assurances, MP and State Government references, Inter-Ministerial communications, PMO references, and CPGRAM cases.
MoHUA aims to advance the Swachhata movement through key public-facing organizations like CPWD, NBCC, DDA, and the Directorate of Estates, focusing on construction, maintenance, and upkeep of government buildings and residential complexes. The campaign will pay special attention to field and outstation offices engaged in public service delivery, record management, space optimization, and general cleanliness. CPWD and NBCC will provide full cooperation for the successful implementation of the campaign.
