A major cleanliness drive was carried out in the city on Sunday in the presence of Governor Ramesh Bais, CM Eknath Shinde and others as part of the nationwide Swachhata Hi Seva campaign. However, activists have pointed out that despite such endeavours, illegal political banners and hoardings are being allowed to proliferate across Mumbai.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) kicked off the cleanliness drive ahead of Gandhi Jayanti. Guardian Minister Deepak Kesarkar participated in the campaign at Girgaon Chowpatty.
