Cleanest City in India – 2025 Update

As of 2025, Indore continues to hold its prestigious title as the cleanest city in India, a position it has proudly maintained since 2017. This remarkable achievement is the result of efficient municipal planning, public participation, and a strong commitment to the Swachh Bharat Mission.

The city excels in waste segregation, scientific disposal, and the use of smart technologies for tracking cleanliness. Indore’s door-to-door garbage collection, composting units, and recycling plants ensure that almost no waste ends up in landfills. Public toilets are well-maintained, and roads and marketplaces are regularly cleaned.

One of Indore’s greatest strengths is its community-driven approach. Local residents, RWAs, schools, and volunteers all take part in cleanliness drives and awareness campaigns.

Indore’s consistent top performance showcases how collaborative efforts between the government and citizens can lead to long-term, impactful change. For cities across India, Indore stands as a role model for sustainable urban cleanliness.
