Union Minister of State for Communications, Dr. Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani, visited Sanchar Bhawan today and reviewed the cleanliness measures undertaken in the premises under the Swachhata Campaign / Special Campaign 5.0.

During his visit, Dr. Pemmasani took a round of various office areas, including corridors, work sections and the Departmental Library, and interacted with officers and staff. He appreciated the ongoing efforts made by the Department to maintain cleanliness and improve the overall work environment.

The Union Minister of State remarked that cleanliness should be part of our daily routine and not a one-time activity, adding that a clean environment naturally leads to better health, clearer thought and higher efficiency. He also noted that regular short-duration cleanliness drives help build self-awareness among employees and contribute to a positive workplace culture.
Dr. Pemmasani highlighted that Swachhata is not merely a cleanliness drive but a step toward realizing the Prime Minister’s mission of a clean and developed India by 2047. He encouraged officers to continue these efforts beyond the campaign period, ensuring that the spirit of cleanliness and efficiency remains an integral part of daily functioning.

The Union Minister of State commended the collective participation of officers and staff and expressed satisfaction over the Department’s proactive approach to maintaining a clean, efficient and responsive administrative ecosystem.

The Special Campaign 5.0, launched on 15th September 2025, concluded today after extensive activities across the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) and its field units, including Licensed Service Areas (LSAs), Controller of Communication Accounts (CCAs), and Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs). The campaign focused on cleanliness drives, space management, record weeding, and e-waste disposal, resulting in visible improvement across offices.
