A review meeting was convened under the leadership of the Municipality to assess the progress of the fourth phase of the “Nirmala Bhavanam Nirmala Nagaram 2.0 – Azhakode Alappuzha” sanitation campaign.
The wards selected for this phase include Poonthoppu, Thathampally, Punnamada, District Court, Kaithavana, Mullathu Valappu, Housing Colony, Railway Station, Karalakam, Mullackal, Colorkode, Vadakkal, and Sanathanapuram.
By July 13, ward-level sanitation committees were already formed in all 13 wards.
