Delhi Lt Governor Najeeb Jung today asked the Chief Secretary to set up the control room, deploy staff and put into place the mechanism for receiving calls, messages or information related to cleanliness.
Jung said in order to achieve the target of making Delhi into a world-class international city, together with fulfilling the promise of making Delhi clean by 2019, there cannot be any complacency in the Government machinery or in the local bodies.
Jung directed Secretaries and Heads of the Departments to be appointed as Nodal Officers, in-charge of all cleanliness related matters of the department.
"The responsibility shall not be delegated further down the chain of command, though each department may internally create its own mechanism of monitoring work," said Jung.
