The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation will conduct Special Campaign 6.0 from October 2 to 31, 2026, focusing on the effective collection and disposal of e-waste across regional offices.
The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) of the Government of India has completed preparations for 'Special Campaign 6.0' aimed at the disposal of pending matters. The campaign will be carried out from October 2 to October 31, 2026. The primary focus of this upcoming phase will be the effective collection, segregation, and disposal of e-waste in regional offices.
The campaign is divided into two phases. The first 'Preparatory Phase' will run from September 15 to September 30, 2026, and the second 'Implementation Phase' will take place from October 2 to October 31, 2026. During these phases, emphasis will be placed on institutionalizing cleanliness and identifying pending matters within offices. This includes the identification of pending references received from the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), VIPs, state governments, and Parliament. Additionally, the goal is to strengthen e-waste management and record management methods in accordance with the guidelines of the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC).
