The Keralam government will on Friday (October 2, 2026) launch a major waste management campaign which aims at addressing all waste-related issues in the State over the next five years.

Announcing the launch of the ‘Nirmala Puthuyuga Suchitwa Keralam’ campaign at a press conference in Thiruvananthapuram on Thursday (October 1, 2026), Minister for Local Self-Governments K.M. Shaji said the Suchitwa Mission would coordinate the activities under the programme which would involve the participation of various agencies dealing with waste management.

“By the time the campaign ends in 2031, we aim at having treatment facilities for various kinds of waste generated in the State. For the campaign to be a success, we will need the cooperation of everyone so that all our houses, offices, campuses and institutions will be free of waste in the next five years,” said Mr. Shaji.
