Launched on July 10, 2026, the month-and-a-half-long cleanliness league brought together all 20 wards of the Itanagar Municipal Corporation (IMC) in a healthy competition aimed at encouraging cleanliness, responsible waste management and greater civic participation.
Held under the motto โSwachh Rajdhani, Hamari Zimmedariโ (A Clean Capital, Our Responsibility), the initiative sought to create greater awareness among citizens and encourage every ward to take ownership of cleanliness in their respective areas.
Following the initial rounds, five wardsโWard Nos. 2, 5, 10, 11 and 20โqualified for the final round.
The final assessment was presented through a projector before the jury members and the gathering. The jury evaluated the five finalist wards based on the prescribed cleanliness parameters and awarded marks according to their observations, assessment and experience.
After the final evaluation, Ward No. 11 was declared the winner of the inaugural edition, while Ward No. 2 secured the runner-up position. The awards were received by the respective Corporators, Gora Lotak of Ward No. 11 and Taksing Tai of Ward No. 2.
