Swachh Survekshan 2017: These Are India’s Cleanest And Dirtiest Cities

To fulfill Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mission to clean up India, the government has surveyed 434 cities and towns so as to measure the progress of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and to take stock of on ground activities.

Highlights
  • Indore, Bhopal and Visakhapatnam India's cleanest cities
  • Bhusawal in Maharashtra ranked the dirtiest after Gonda in UP
  • Uttar Pradesh is a 'matter of concern': Venkaiah Naidu

New Delhi: India’s cleanest city is Indore in Madhya Pradesh and the runner up, Bhopal, is also from the same state, Union Minister Venkaiah Naidu said today, announcing the names of 25 cities that have been voted the best by citizens. The government’s “Swachh Survekshan 2017”, which has assessed cities based on lakh of votes from 434 cities, also says the dirtiest city is in Uttar Pradesh – Gonda.

The third best is the coastal port city of Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh.  Surat in Gujarat has placed fourth and last year’s winner Mysuru in Karnataka has dropped to the fifth spot. This is the second survey to score the Swachh Bharat or Clean India mission in 434 cities across India.

Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh are the movers and shakers of the ongoing drive,” Mr Naidu said, noting a “remarkable improvement” in the cities of Gujarat and Chhattisgarh.

But it is a “matter of concern”, he said, that the condition is so bad in Uttar Pradesh, which is the country’s most populous state.

According to the minister, Bhusawal in Maharashtra ranked the dirtiest after Gonda.

People were asked to vote on several questions on a feedback form as part of the survey.

According to the government, around 80 per cent people have said that there is an improvement in cleanliness over the past two years in their cities.

The results have been evaluated using an independent assessment score, data submitted by local bodies about sanitation and cleanliness work and people’s feedback.

The survey was among the steps taken to achieve Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Clean India mission by 2019.

          Hello Adam..R u ever seen the cities of Kerala..Ernakulam, Cochi,Trivandrum, Kollam, Kottayam, Trisur etc…? In Madhya Pradesh I never seen a big and a clean cities like Kerala.

      May 4, 2017 at 3:43 pm

      Even I am a die hard BJP fan, I am agree with rohit’s comment. May be Vizag will come first. Bhopal and Indore cant be in top.

      Don’t give false impression to people so that they wont know that there is still improvement is needed. Else on day they will be at the bottom due to ignorance only.

        May 5, 2017 at 12:17 pm

        I am from Bhopal. I visited Shillong which is Ranked 276 here. Jabalpur is 21 which is shocking. Cities like Vizag, Puducherry, Gangtok and many should be above Bhopal.

        shilling is very clean. Don’t forget 2018—MP assembly elections

    I am from bhopal, is this a joke, open sewage near mata mandir, pigs in dozens, people urinating near tt nagar police station, smell of rotten garbage all over , not even mentioning the horror of kolar road colonies, what a shame to glorify a city where the govt. have failed to provide even basic facilities and cleanliness …

      May 4, 2017 at 1:50 pm

      so..if you can see this. Please start cleaning your city. motivate other to do so..rather than commenting like this. This is not about who is governing the country. Important is initiate taken for Swach Bharat. Its everyone’s responsibility

      Just imagine if Bhopal is cleanest, what will be the condition of the dirtiest? And we are faithfully paying Swachchh Bharat tax. Nobody knows how its proceeds are being utilized. Mera Bharat Mahaan.

    May 4, 2017 at 1:02 pm

    This is a very good way to motivate the cities to become cleaner. I think we should have a list of hundred cities so that the competition becomes keener. Also we should also have the top 10 dirtiest cities every year.

    The city gone bad to worse is Delhi, where a common is concerned over cleanliness but MCD the main authority for cleaning the city, is always in the crisis and don’t even come for the garbage collection for upto a week. During election time there was complete shut down by MCD worker. Which is a shame for the capital city. Big hope from Kamaljeet Sehrawat, the future mayor of Delhi 🙂

    Living in Chennai and Indore , I don’t believe Indore is cleaner then Chennai in any way. I can write you 10 places at this moment where though city has improved , it is still legging behind Chennai and Puducherry.

    • Viv

      May 4, 2017 at 7:30 pm

      While I agree with your observation on Indore but I dont agree Chennai is clean either. I have seem condition when first rains come to coty all -sewages come and roads are filled with water. Plus the weather is horrible all the year-very less green-may be planting more trees will cool. Indore may not be cleanest but definitely there has been great drive recently and people motivation to keep Indore clean. So if survey is done properly some other city may top but Indore should come under top 10. Moreover, I think this rating is based on votes. Indore is already one of candidate of smart city so the state govt is making every effort to get funds!! 🙂

    From comments its is true that, many of you can see uncleanliness still in city. Then why not start cleaning your city? motivate other to do so..rather than commenting like this. This is not about who is governing the country. Important is initiate taken for Swach Bharat. Its everyone’s responsibility to keep our area clean

    In my opinion Kolkata is looking good and streets are cleaned mostly in the morning and afternoon hours; people are aware not to throw garbage on the street and only after whistle sound to put them in cart; incinerators are installed for instant disposal;

    I literally had to read the topic 5 times to make sure I am reading cleanest not dirtiest cities of India.

    We are number one in creating HYPE.
    Please ignore this survey and move on to something useful.
    May be go and watch Bahubali 2.

    May 4, 2017 at 2:09 pm

    The criteria to choose the best and worst is hilarious. How can this be done through voting or by questionnaire.
    A person who is evaluating a particular parameter should have access or visited all 434 cities other wise how he will compare just like the reality show in TV. To vote for a prticular candidate, one should judge all participants.
    Hence, this ranking is of no meaning.

    Delhi, Bhopal in top 10. Am I blind not to see this clean Delhi living here for 5 years. And bhopal ! Had been there couple of times and I can say if that is in top clean cities then Chandigarh, and cities in Kerala will need decades to go down to their level.god knows how the survey was done

  26. Manoj Yadav

    May 4, 2017 at 2:16 pm

    Totally fake survey, i live in new delhi feel like garbage. And government is saying its 7th cleanest city of india. Its just goverment own survey not people of india. In india most clean city in hill area like manipur, himachal, not in MP and Chattishghar.

  27. Shantanu

    May 4, 2017 at 2:17 pm

    Mysuru is most clean city in India. Nothing wrong to declare cleanest city where BJP rules.

  28. Himanshi

    May 4, 2017 at 2:20 pm

    Bhopal? I have been there, and it wasn’t that clean. Chandigarh, on the other, should be among the top 10.

    very hard to believe that bhopal can be no. 1 , this is skewed and politically motivated survey, even in MP you will find much cleaner cities like Ujjain, Dewas, Jabalpur, Rewa.. looks like Mama Ji showed they surveyor only some clean parts of Bhopal, any first time visitor who will come to Bhopal Junction railway station will know how clean it is 🙂 LOL I can believe that Indore can be clean but Bhopal ?? No way!!

    Goto any slum, you can find open sewage, garbage and open defecation too.

    The Indian mind needs new seeds of ideas to talk about. This is a potential idea.
    This very moment I felt like going to the Municipal Commissioner of my CITY to discuss making it the cleanest city in India in the coming years.
    We all need to get involved and take up the responsibility to make our cities clean.
    Infrastructure development can take years but we can have our cities cleaned in weeks. We need a strong resolve and dedication to our beloved cities.

    What’s about Delhi? The dirtiest city bcoz MCD don’t take responsibility to clean it. Delhi Govt and Central Govt r unable to decide wen it comes to pay MCD salary…then start the real drama of throwing garbage on old Delhi street controlled by MCD.

    Everyone knows but unable to decide how to keep it clean like other cities.

    Hope we all should learn to keep out cities clean.

    How can we call a city clean, when the pavements are occupied by street vendors, home for homeless or used for urination. streets are littered with garbage. we have no civic sense to keep the neighborhood clean. Nobody is answerable for the pathetic situation, municipalities waste millions but unable to keep cities clean, population explosion needs to be controlled.
    To educate people on this subject TV channels can be used.

    What is the government doing to support the cleanliness of the cities? Are there landfills, extra garbage pickup and disposal units, or more investment and infrastructure? Without government money, garbage will be disposed off and burnt the usual way. Don’t expect a miracle without government support

  53. Doesnt matter

    May 4, 2017 at 5:07 pm

    Good first step…but if you have to run campaigns and program to teach people how to keep their country clean, there is a fundamental issue with people mindset. Being clean and keeping clean is a value and ideally there shouldnt be programs to enforce or check compliance. I am completely for such programs but an illiterate and literate person should share same values, as long as mindset change doesnt happen we will need similar programs everywhere…and unfortunately these will be band aids only.

    Our Karnataka CM is busy doing all that Modi objects for eg lal bathi, so why would he do swatch bharat, he would neatly stop people from doing any cleanliness process 🙂 as it is our BBMP is doing all the wrong things in the world like dumping dirt in lakes, No BBMP Garbage collectors are one of the example of filth every where in the city. Open Drainage, one small rain and the whole city is blocked in traffic.

      IF YOU HAVE SHORT MEMORY AND FORGET BJP MESS IN BENGALURU CONVERTING GARDEN CITY INTO GARBAGE AND BANKRUPT CITY, MORTGAGING 13 BENGLAURU PROPERTY INCLUDE TOWN HALL, UTILITY BUILDING FOR 10000S CORES LOAN..

      READ People memory is short, just to remember BJP run BBMP made bengaluru bankrupt and garbage city in 5 years. They didn’t have money to pay salary for employees and left city with massive debt! Google

      2012 “BBMP pledges Utility Building for Rs. 1,000-crore loan” , may 2012 “BBMP plans to mortgage PUB” Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike’s (BBMP) poor financial status, the civic body has given the Krishna Rajendra Market as “collateral security” for a low-interest loan for Rs. 500 crore from the Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO).

      In 5 years, they have mortgaged 13 similar Bengaluru properties for 10000s of cores loan and yet road was most pathetic with city was full of garbage. Even Congress come to power 4 years ago, it didn’t help because BJP was still running BBMP. It was most fortunate that last year congress took over BBMP with help of JDs.. Once congress won BBMP with help of Jds,

      Jan 2014. “Government Won’t Allow BBMP to Pledge Assets: Siddu ” Dec2015 “BBMP to Clear Mortgage on KR Market ”
      Jan 2016 “Mayo Hall back to BBMP, 8 others still remain mortgaged” July 2016.. “Once broke, BBMP now flush with funds! – Deccan Chronicle” BBMP redeems two of its mortgaged properties”

      As against every BJP ministers caught red hand in grabbing land, current state gov has shown courage and recovered over 14000acres land, worth over lakh crores from land mafia in last 3 years. No state government from India history has taken such bold decision. Despite pathetic bjp governance and loot, people still elected same useless BJP corporate election after election and expecting city to change. They blessed all 3 BJP MPs, 100 corporate (2 dozen of them are ex-corporate wife,daughter, son, relatives), and 14 BJP MLA in bengaluru. Same with Whitefiled issue, they voted bjp corporate, MLA, MP and bjp rajeev chandrashekar and expect someone else do work for them. Karnataka Gov never show discrimination and has fixed some of whitefield road. Just week after road fix in whitefiled, BJP worker dug hole to post yudti banners in the same area.

    Any city in southern India is much cleaner. People over there seem to have better civic sense and obey rules and regulations.
    Wonder when squatting on Railway tracks in northern parts will end. It is the biggest eyesore.

    I am from Bhopal. I visited Shillong which is Ranked 276 here. Jabalpur is 21 which is shocking. Cities like Vizag, Puducherry, Gangtok and many should be above Bhopal.

    shilling is very clean. Don’t forget 2018—MP assembly elections

    Sorry to say that Our Bangalore, Dasarahalli BBMP have not taken any action for the last two complaints request No. 10631180 dated 13.04.2017 and complaint request No.10658208 dated 01.08.2017 on creating nuisance due to the foul smell and release of effluents by the shoe making factory located at the residential area. The BBMP officials visited the spot and informed that the action will be initiated on the factory, which is not complying with Karnataka State Pollution Control Board Norms. Till this time no action has been initiated. Instead of that the residents are developing skin rashes and pollution of Air. Where is Swachh Bharat Mission in this regard.

    This debate on cleanliness itself is a good sign. It was not there a few years ago. We should have a similar initiative on population control and corruption eradication.
