Alot (Madhya Pradesh): Despite Alot securing 280th rank at national, 135th in the state and 46th in the zone in the Swachh Survekshan 2023, the city president's ward 12 paints a rather contradictory image. When the city council employees are engaged in a competitive spirit to claim credit for the ranking, emphasising their commitment to cleanliness, the reality contradicts the feat.

Alot Municipal Council is responsible for 15 wards, spends Rs 15 lakh monthly on cleaning and utilises five garbage vehicles and two tractors. However, ward 12 remained the dirtiest, raising questions about the effectiveness of the cleaning efforts. According to information, ward number 12, represented by Municipal Council president Mamta Vimal Kumar Jain, continues to grapple with sanitation issues despite substantial expenditure.
