28 Oct 2025 CW Team

The Ministry of Heavy Industries (MHI), along with its Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) and Autonomous Bodies (ABs), is actively implementing the Special Campaign for Disposal of Pending Matters (SCDPM) 5.0, aligning with the Prime Minister’s vision to institutionalise Swachhata and promote efficiency in governance. The campaign, held from 2 to 31 October 2025, focuses on cleanliness, record management, and timely grievance redressal.

MHI Secretary Kamran Rizvi, accompanied by senior officials, inspected various ministry divisions in New Delhi to assess implementation progress. A dedicated monitoring team tracks daily achievements, which are uploaded on the SCDPM portal managed by the Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances.

As of 20 October 2025, MHI achieved significant milestones: cleanliness drives at 755 of 1,336 sites (57 per cent completion), freeing 2.875 million sq ft of space (77 per cent of target), and achieving 100 per cent disposal of 28 public grievances and 10 appeals. The Ministry reviewed 16,667 physical files, weeded out 11,426 files, and achieved 99 per cent completion in reviewing and weeding over 1 million e-files.

Among notable initiatives, Engineering Projects (India) Ltd renovated its fourth-floor pantry in New Delhi, the Central Manufacturing Technology Institute (CMTI) undertook roof cleaning at its CASMP block in Bengaluru, and Andrew Yule & Co Ltd transformed scrap into a recreational room at its Kolkata headquarters.

To amplify awareness, more than 350 updates have been shared on X (formerly Twitter), and three PIB statements have highlighted MHI’s achievements under the campaign. For the first time, an inter-organisational inspection system has been introduced to ensure quality and timely completion of targets.
