Chiephobozou, September 23 (MExN): In a significant display of public participation, hundreds of residents joined a Cleanliness Target Unit (CTU) cleaning drive in Chiephobozou as part of the nationwide Swachhata Hi Seva (SHS) Campaign 2025.
The drive was organised by the Public Health Engineering Department (PHED), Kohima Urban and Rural Division, in collaboration with the Chiephobozou Town Council.
According to a press release from Vibou Seyie, IEC Consultant for PHED Kohima Division, the cleaning activity covered the Chiephobozou Block dumping site, the NH-02 stretch, market shed, park and all constituent wards.
