The Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES) has begun preparations for Special Campaign 4.0, promoting cleanliness and effective governance. Special Campaign 4.0, aligned with the Swachh Bharat vision of the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, will be implemented at MoES headquarters in New Delhi and its institutes spread across the country from October 2nd to 31st, 2024. The preparatory phase of the Special Campaign 4.0 has begun at the Ministry and will run from September 16th to 30th, 2024.

All institutions, including autonomous bodies, attached and sub-ordinate offices to the Ministry, have been issued guidelines to execute Special Campaign 4.0 effectively.  Emphasis has been drawn on identifying cleanliness campaign sites, scrap and redundant items, pending official references, grievances and appeals, planning for space and record management, and beautifying office space. These efforts underline the importance of efficiency, transparency, and waste management in government functioning.
