The Department of Health & Family Welfare has made significant progress in cleanliness, record management, grievance redressal and space management since 2021.
The Department of Health & Family Welfare (DoHFW), under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, has been implementing comprehensive cleanliness, record management, and pendency reduction initiatives since 2021. The focus is on institutionalising and improving efficiency in Government functioning.
Over a period from November 2025 to August 2026, DoHFW reviewed 65,329 files, of which 27,531 were weeded out, contributing towards streamlining record management and reducing accumulated records in government offices and institutions.
During the same period, 47,537 public grievances and 3,635 associated appeals were disposed of, along with 543 Members of Parliament (MP) References, 19 Parliamentary Assurances, and 46 State Government References.
As part of the cleanliness and space management initiatives, a total of 659 cleanliness campaigns were conducted across various offices and institutions, resulting in the disposal of scrap material worth ₹21.26 lakh and the freeing up of 24,299 square feet of space.
The initiatives have facilitated revenue generation through the disposal of scrap and created cleaner, healthier workplace environments, improved record management, and more effective utilisation of available space.
