Local bodies across the State have stepped up pre-monsoon cleaning activities to prevent the incidence and spread of vector-borne diseases and other epidemics which occur during the monsoon season.
The Local Self-Governments department (LSGD), which is in the middle of the multiphase ‘Malinya Muktham Nava Keralam’ campaign, is coordinating with various departments as well as with the local community in every place as part of the cleaning drive.
Ahead of the cleaning drive, local bodies have conducted coordination meetings in the presence of various levels of officials, which were followed by organising district-level training for officials of Local Self-Government Institutions (LSGIs).
