The Ministry of Mines has achieved remarkable progress under <em>Special Campaign 5.0<\/em>, launched on October 2, 2025, with a focused theme of <em>\u201cE-Waste Collection Drive.\u201d<\/em> The initiative underscores the Ministry\u2019s growing commitment to sustainability, cleanliness, and responsible management of resources.<\/p>\n<p>During the first fortnight of the campaign, the Ministry successfully conducted 290 cleanliness drives across the country\u2014nearly completing its target of 292 sites. Through efficient record management and the disposal of outdated materials and files, an impressive 13,283 sq. ft. of office space was freed.<\/p>\n<p>A key highlight of this campaign has been the domestic e-waste recycling drive coordinated by the Jawaharlal Nehru Aluminium Research Development and Design Centre (JNARDDC). Implemented across 58 locations nationwide, the initiative has collected 702.55 kilograms of e-waste, with an estimated value of \u20b94.5 lakh. The campaign also aims to spread awareness about responsible e-waste recycling among employees and partner organizations, encouraging environmentally conscious behavior and sustainable waste management practices.<\/p>\n<p>Several institutions under the Ministry have launched creative and community-oriented sustainability initiatives. The Mineral Exploration and Consultancy Limited (MECL) showcased <em>Waste-to-Art<\/em> installations, including a model bike, giraffe, and tool stand crafted entirely from metal scrap \u2014 symbolizing artistic recycling and innovative reuse. The Indian Bureau of Mines (IBM) beautified its office garden and pathways using waste materials and installed scrap-based art pieces at the Devapur Limestone Mines in Telangana. Additionally, IBM constructed a compost pit at a government school in Morad, promoting environmental education and awareness.<\/p>\n<p>The Geological Survey of India (GSI) also contributed to the campaign\u2019s outreach by organizing a free medical health check-up camp for staff and contractual workers, reinforcing the program\u2019s focus on health, hygiene, and well-being.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MinesMinIndia\/status\/1978711559116611740?\">https:\/\/x.com\/MinesMinIndia\/status\/1978711559116611740?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Through these diverse initiatives, the Ministry of Mines continues to champion a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable work culture. The first two weeks of <em>Special Campaign 5.0<\/em> have not only demonstrated effective waste management and environmental responsibility but have also advanced the vision of a circular economy \u2014 where waste is transformed into valuable resources and art.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry reaffirmed its commitment to continuing these efforts throughout the campaign period, ensuring that sustainability becomes a cornerstone of everyday administrative and operational practices within the mining sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>290 cleanliness drives held nationwide; over 13,000 sq. ft. office space cleared and 700 kg e-waste collected under sustainability initiative<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4135,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[116,263],"tags":[699],"class_list":["post-4134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-ministry-of-mine","tag-e-waste-collection-drive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 -
