The first-ever “Swachhta Green Leaf Rating System” in the Northeast was effectively implemented in Kaziranga, Assam. Ms. Vini Mahajan, Secretary, Department of Drinking Water & Sanitation, Ministry of Jal Shakti, launched the initiative in front of dignitaries from the Central and State governments as well as owners of various hotels, resorts, and homestays that provide services to visitors to Kaziranga National Park.

In response, the District Administration informed the assembly about the existing infrastructure of the Material Recovery Facility run by the Bokakhat Municipal Board (BMB) for handling different kinds of solid waste, as well as the widely used waste collection vehicle system for picking up solid waste from resorts and hotels.

The meeting was also attended by Secretary PHED cum MD Jal Jeevan Mission, Assam, and Commissioner, P&RD cum Mission Director, Swachh Bharat Mission (Grameen), Assam; District Commissioner, Golaghat, Nagaon, along with State and local district administration officials.
