Moving forward with its aim to improve Lucknow’s ranking in Swacch Bharat Survekshan this year, Lucknow Municipal Corporation has decided to abolish all yellow spots in the city. All the roadside areas where people urinate in the open are marked as yellow spots. To put an end to this problem and increase the hygiene and cleanliness in the city, LMC is all set to take strict measures to prevent people from urinating in the open.

Under the ambit of this cleanliness drive, LMC has marked more than 300 yellow spots across the city that includes places like Lohia Path, Kukrail Road, Ring Road, Faizabad Road, Charbagh Road and Sikandarbagh Road, among others. All the places in these areas that have turned into open urination grounds will be cleaned by LMC.
In the first phase of this drive, all yellow spots in these areas will be eliminated by March 31, informed the officials of LMC. The civic body of the capital city has also finalised teams for each zone in the city that will take up this herculean task. There are a total of 8 zones in Lucknow and these municipal teams will ensure all the zones are free from these yellow spots.

As a part of this initiative, the municipal body of the city will also spread awareness around the same. In addition to this, the civic body will also impose a fine of ₹100 on those caught urinating in public. Meanwhile, even after the elimination of these spots, LMC will conduct surprise inspections to ensure these places remain clean.
In case there are no public washrooms nearby and one is in dire need of one, the person may walk into any restaurant, hotel or cafe and use their washroom. According to the Indian Sarais Act, 1867, any individual can use washrooms at hotels and restaurants for free, at any part of the day. It is actually our constitutional right to use washrooms at these commercial establishments without any charge. Apart from this, one can also ask for free water at hotels for themselves and their pets as well.

Notably, these yellow spots play a deciding role in the annual cleanliness survey that is carried out by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. In this survey, questions are also asked from the public on topics related to cleanliness and one of these questions is related to yellow spot.
After inspecting the cleanliness level of the city on the basis of all these factors, marks are awarded by the committee in Swachh Survekshan. According to officials, a team from the centre is expected to visit Lucknow this month to inspect the cleanliness works in the city and take feedback from the people. On the basis of this inspection, Lucknow will be given a rank in the Swachh Survekshan 2022.
