“A society is defined not only by what it creates, but by what it refuses to destroy.”
Bartan and Thaila Banks were established at almost 20 places at in Khandwa. People can take utensils on rent on nominal rates from these Bartan Bank for functions/ceremonies/other occasioned and can help in reducing load of disposable plastics on environment. They can also purchase Thaila from thaila bank and can stop using SUP/Plastic bags. These banks have made tremendous efforts in reducing quantum of waste generated. We in association of KMC is working towards involving SHGs in this project to provide them livelihood opportunities.
"The purpose – where I start – is the idea of use. It is not recycling, it’s reuse."
We have suggested to establish about 20 Neki Ki Deewar at Khandwa, in turn KMC has established these at 20 locations in the city. These are helpful in getting cloths, utensils, food, shoes etc. to needy. Ultimate aim is to reduce production of waste, actually which is not waste but resource for others.
"It's like recycling: selling old clothes to help make new ones."

Our team extends constant support to KMC for Beatification of city. Decorative fencing/ wire mesh has also been constructed/fixed over the bridges of water bodies to prevent littering and gaining attraction/attention of passer-by to motivate them to not to litter at such a beautiful place.
The success and accolades received at Dadaji Dham for producing compost from flower waste allowed us to replicate the model by collecting flowers offered in temples, mosques and gurudwaras to a common collection centre. The flowers are now being collected by ‘Pushp Ki Abhilasha Vaahan’ (vehicle to collect flower) from different temples, mosques and gurudwaras, sorted and unloaded into compost pits with the mixture of mud and cow dung for composting. The process of composting is then like that of composting at Dadaji Dham. A separate vehicle collecting organic waste from slaughterhouse was also flagged off. Both the vehicles were flagged off by Collector, Ms. Tanvi Sundriyal and Commissioner, Mr. Himanshu Singh on March 18th 2020 from Nagar Nigam Khandwa headquarters.
Composting at Dadaji Dham began from October 15th, 2019 with the intent of distributing organic compost among devotees on special occasions in Dadaji Dham. Though, creating organic compost is a very simple process, but lot of necessary precautions and measures needs to be adopted while composting. It begins with assembling flowers and segregating them properly, creating first layer of base with cow’s dung and mud, then spreading flowers in the pit and mixing them with first layer and regularly spraying it with water and repeating this process twice or thrice for healthy composting.
With the intent of converting trenching ground into a golf course for citizens of Khandwa, many a significant changes have been made at the ground level on trenching ground, trommel machine has been setup for processing waste at trenching ground, MRF facility for segregating dry waste has been setup, twenty one (21) pits have been constructed for decomposing wet collected from all six (6) zones, biogas plant has been setup and also landfill has been constructed.
Information, Education and Communication (IEC) is a systematic approach aiming at changing or reinforcing behaviours in a target audience, concerning a specific problem and within a pre-defined period of time, through communication methods and principles.Every month we are carrying out about 250 plus IEC Activities on about 25 thematic areas under Swachh Bharat Mission to create awareness & sensitization and to motivate residents/citizens for following best practices of cleanliness, sanitation and hygiene. We conduct IEC activities on following topics as per guidelines of SBM-Urban and State with a view to impact behaviour change of residents.
