Six cities have been certified as 5-star in the rating of Garbage Free Cities for the assessment year 2019-2020, the central government said on Tuesday. 

Ambikapur, Rajkot, Surat, Mysuru, Indore and Navi Mumbai have been rated 5-star while 65 cities are 3-star and 70 cities have been rated as 1-star, Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said. 

While announcing the results of the Star Rating of Garbage Free Cities, Puri, the Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Housing and Urban Affairs, also launched the revised protocol for the Star Rating of Garbage Free Cities at the event. 

The Star Rating Protocol was launched by the Ministry in January 2018 to institutionalize a mechanism for cities to achieve Garbage Free status, and to motivate cities to achieve higher degrees of cleanliness. 

Addressing the media, Puri said, “The importance of sanitation and effective solid waste management has been brought to the forefront now due to the COVID crisis. In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the present situation could have been much worse had it not been for the critical part that Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban (SBM-U) has played in the last five years to ensure a high degree of cleanliness and sanitation in urban areas."

"Five years ago, we introduced Swachh Survekshan (SS), the annual cleanliness survey for urban India that has proven immensely successful when it comes to improving urban cleanliness through a spirit of healthy competition. However, since it is a ranking system, several of our cities, despite doing exceptionally well, were not being recognized appropriately. The Ministry, therefore, devised the Star Rating Protocol for Garbage Free Cities - a comprehensive framework similar to our examination systems where each ward in every city must achieve a certain standard across 24 different components of solid waste management (SWM) and is graded based on overall marks received," he said. 

He further said, “Our aim is to institutionalize as well as bring consistency and transparency when it comes to SWM. This certification is not only an acknowledgement of the clean status of Urban Local Bodies and strengthened SWM systems but also a mark of trust and reliability akin to universally known standards. Moreover, the performance of cities under the Star Rating Protocol is crucial as it carries significant weightage when it comes to their final assessment in Swachh Survekshan.”

The protocol has been devised in a holistic manner including components such as cleanliness of drains & water bodies, plastic waste management, managing construction & demolition waste, etc. which are critical drivers for achieving garbage free cities. While the key thrust of this protocol is on SWM, it also takes care of ensuring certain minimum standards of sanitation through a set of prerequisites defined in the framework, the Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs said in a statement. 

Additionally, in the light of the COVID crisis, the ministry has issued detailed guidelines to all States and cities on special cleaning of public places and collection and disposal of bio-medical waste from quarantined households. 

Here is the full list of all cities that were rated under Garbage Free Cities rating:
