Aninha Educational Institute of Higher Secondary in Science & Arts will observe Swachh Bharat Diwas (SBD) and the Intensive Swachhata Hi Sewa (SHS) Campaign 2025 in line with the circular from Samagra Shiksha, Govt. of Goa.
The national campaign runs from 17 September to 2 October 2025, culminating on Gandhi Jayanti.
Theme: Swachhotsav — a festival of cleanliness and community service.
Why this matters
Cleanliness is everyone’s responsibility. SHS 2025 asks schools to turn awareness into action—making our campus, neighbourhoods, and public spaces safer, healthier, and greener.
Key Focus Areas (as per SHS 2025)
Transformation of Cleanliness Target Units (CTUs)
Identification, mapping, and cleaning of difficult/dirty spots within a defined timeframe (classrooms, labs, store rooms, back-of-house, canteen surrounds, bus bays).
Clean Public Spaces
General cleanliness drives in and around schools, institutions, and high-footfall areas (approach roads, bus stops, playground edges, market lanes adjoining the campus).
SafaiMitra Suraksha Shivirs
Single-window camps to support sanitation workers with preventive health check-ups and welfare linkages; student-led gratitude and safety kits.
Clean Green Utsav
Eco-friendly celebrations—plastic-free events, native sapling plantation, water conservation demos, and energy-saving pledges.
Advocacy Initiatives
Activities like Swachh Sujal Gaon, Waste to Art, Clean Street Food promotion, and setting up/strengthening RRR (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) Centres.
