The ‘Swachhata Train’ initiative aimed at achieving many objectives. Firstly, it sought to promote awareness about the importance of waste management and cleanliness in the city. To achieve this, the AMC decided to engage and educate residents and visitors through an immersive and enjoyable experience.

During the train journey, passengers had the unique opportunity to learn about waste management through engaging displays and presentations. These educational elements are designed to make the learning experience enjoyable and memorable.
One of the most innovative aspects of the ‘Swachhata Train’ initiative was the specially designed messages.
