Prayagraj: In order to maintain cleanliness throughout Maha Kumbh, the Mela administration has planned to deploy one sweeper for every 10 toilets and one supervisor for every 10 sweepers. Similarly, one sweeper will manage every 20 urinals, with one supervisor overseeing 20 sweepers. All vendors are asked to adhere strictly to set standards and safety measures, where sweepers must wear PPE, including gloves and shoes, ensuring both cleanliness and worker safety.
Special executive officer, Akanksha Rana, told reporters, "These measures aim to upgrade sanitation facilities and enhance the overall experience for devotees and tourists. All toilet facilities will be maintained to the highest standards of cleanliness, where toilets, washbasins, floors, and tiles remain stain- and dirt-free, and essential supplies such as toilet paper, soap dispensers, hand sanitisers, and feminine hygiene products are readily available." The functionality of flush systems, taps, showers, and jet spray machines will be thoroughly maintained, ensuring they operate efficiently without any leaks.
Advanced technology will ensure waste is decomposed within 24 hours, maintaining freshness even during heavy use. At least 10% of the toilets will be made accessible for persons with disabilities. Suction machines and waste disposal systems will be deployed.
