He asked the Principal Secretaries, Secretaries and HODs to keep the cleanliness drive going as a continuous process.
"Spolia also conducted an inspection of all the offices and toilets at Delhi Secretariat and appealed the staff not to wash utensils in toilets citing that food particles and other foreign objects get caught between the drain and pipes leading to choking of the drain.
After the pledge ceremony, cleanliness drive was carried out in the respective department to ensure cleanliness of their premises.
Old sign boards were replaced and old records (which were of no use) and unserviced items were disposed off.
Wild grass from terraces and roadsides of the offices were also removed and dustbins were placed at proper locations.
