The Swachh Shehar Jodi (SSJ) 2025 initiative, launched by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), is a comprehensive urban waste management mentorship program. Under this program, 72 top-performing ‘mentor’ cities are paired with approximately 200 low-performing ‘mentee’ cities to help transfer the best practices of cleanliness and waste management from successful cities to those that are lagging. The initiative aims to enhance experience, best practices, and citizen participation in underperforming cities. As part of this effort, a 100-day action plan has been implemented, covering eight key themes: cleanliness, waste segregation, scientific waste management, sanitation and water/sewer facilities, mechanical cleaning, citizen awareness, and grievance redressal.
