The Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs has set November 11 for the announcement of the 2025–26 Swachh Survekshan award winners. President Droupadi Murmu is scheduled to present the awards at Vigyan Bhawan in New Delhi, the ministry said in a November 9 release through the Press Information Bureau. The release gave the ceremony date and did not name the winners.
The tenth edition of the urban cleanliness survey assessed more than 4,751 cities, the ministry said. Municipal bodies were judged on 43 indicators across 10 areas. These included how they separate and collect waste, manage wastewater and respond to residents’ complaints. This edition gave residents’ feedback more weight and expanded scrutiny of urban riverfronts, coastlines and water bodies.
The ceremony will also recognise top performers in Swachh Shehar Jodi, a programme that pairs cities so they can learn from one another about managing waste.
