As per reports, while senior officials of the local bodies will supervise the everyday work of the staff, a weekly review will be taken up by the Urban Development Minister A K Sharma as well. Zonal officers of municipal corporations and municipalities will also do the monitoring on the ground in the morning from 5 AM to 8 AM.

A dedicated dashboard will be created for the officers to share the report and offer feedback. The ministry has already passed on a brief notification to minimise any doubts among the officers. In the near future, the officers will check the water supply and cleanliness of the sewage system as part of this initiative.
