Dhemaji District in Assam Achieves Remarkable 100% ODF+ Status: A Triumph of Cleanliness and Community
Dhemaji Sets an Inspiring Example for a Sustainable and Hygienic India
Dhemaji, Assam:  In a resounding achievement for the people and district administration of Dhemaji in Assam, the Honourable Education Minister, Ranoj Pegu, took to social media to extend heartfelt congratulations. The reason for this jubilation? Dhemaji district has proudly reached the impressive milestone of achieving 100% Open Defecation Free Plus (ODF+) status, a testament to their unwavering commitment to cleanliness and environmental sustainability under the Swachh Bharat Mission Gramin

Minister Ranoj Pegu's announcement stands as a testament to the collective determination of the district's residents, the tireless efforts of the SBM teams, and the effective governance of the district administration. Their relentless pursuit of a 'Clean & Green' Dhemaji has paid off, bringing a remarkable transformation to the region.

A Clean Sweep of Success

The journey towards achieving ODF+ status has been a long and challenging one. It required a community-wide effort, with residents coming together to adopt hygienic sanitation practices and make proper sanitation facilities a part of their daily lives. The district administration played a pivotal role in raising awareness and facilitating the construction of toilets in households and public places.

Empowering Communities

The success in Dhemaji district is a shining example of how community empowerment and government initiatives can create lasting change. The Swachh Bharat Mission Gramin (SBM-G) has been instrumental in driving improvements in sanitation and hygiene across rural India, with a particular focus on achieving ODF status. In Dhemaji, this initiative not only eradicated open defecation but also encouraged responsible waste management and a commitment to maintaining a clean environment.

A 'Clean & Green' Future

The achievement of 100% ODF+ status in Dhemaji is a stepping stone towards a cleaner and greener future for the district. It demonstrates that when communities, local governments, and state leadership unite for a common cause, transformative change is possible. The 'Clean & Green' Dhemaji that Minister Ranoj Pegu envisions is not just about sanitation; it's about fostering a sustainable and healthy environment for generations to come.

Acknowledging the Champions

Minister Ranoj Pegu also commended the district administration of Dhemaji and the dedicated SBM teams for their relentless efforts. Their commitment to the cause of cleanliness has not only elevated Dhemaji's status but has set an inspiring example for other regions to follow.

As Dhemaji district revels in this remarkable achievement, it stands as a testament to what can be accomplished when communities and government agencies collaborate with a shared vision. The 100% ODF+ status is not just a milestone; it's a promise of a brighter and cleaner future for the people of Dhemaji and a source of inspiration for the entire nation.
