Kohima: Nagaland authorities ordered a state-wide mass social work day for November 13. Cleanup efforts start at 6 a.m. sharp. Government departments, urban local bodies, village councils, and civil society groups must clear trash to prep for the Hornbill Festival. Businesses must shutter until noon to participate.
Kohima officials directed all shops and residents to scrub the areas in front of their establishments. Heads of offices there must mobilize staff and manage waste disposal. In Dimapur, Deputy Commissioner Dr. Tinojongshi Chang chaired a planning session on November 9 to assign specific cleanup stretches to local departments.
The DC urged all stakeholders to act. "The departments would be responsible for cleaning their assigned areas and disposing of collected waste," the administration stated. Business owners in Dimapur and East Dimapur face a mandatory closure until noon.
Similar mandates apply across the state. Deputy Commissioner Polan John issued a call to action for Chümoukedima. Meanwhile, the Pughoboto sub-division office requires all departments to file action reports with photos after they finish the work. This drive involves village councils, VDBs, churches, and student unions.
In Pfutsero, ADC Mhalo Humtsoe scheduled the event to prepare for the festive season and the November 21 Golden Jubilee of the Chakhesang Women Welfare Society. Officials expect residents to cooperate fully to improve sanitation in every town and village.
