The cleanliness drive aims to spread the message of cleanliness, sanitation and hygiene in the society, the board said. The drive will continue until October 31. The campaign has been celebrated to undertake “Shramdaan” activities with the aim of generating a “Jan Andolan” through the active participation of students, teachers and community. The central government organised, the ‘Swachhata Hi Seva’ 3.0 Campaign to commemorate the 154th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.

Students and teachers from CBSE schools targeted garbage-vulnerable points such as railway tracks, stations, areas surrounding schools, slums, under bridges, market spaces etc. for their cleanliness activities.

The board has also directed all CBSE schools to organize Swachhata Pledge and essay, slogan, poem writing competitions. Painting and quiz competitions on cleanliness and hygiene practices in the schools were also organised by several schools. The CBSE Board also shared the “before and after” images of the sites that were chosen by the schools for the cleanliness drive. “We cannot build a healthier and stronger nation without first ensuring its cleanliness,” the board tweeted on X official account by sharing state-wise CBSE students images who participated in the ‘Swachhata Hi Seva’ 3.0 Campaign.

In an official notice, the Board informed, “All CBSE officers, employees and affiliated schools enthusiastically participated in all the events and sanitation activities in the Cleanliness Drive – “Ek Tareekh Ek Ghanta Ek Sath” conducted on 01.10.2023 at 10:00 am.”
