Navi Mumbai: In the wake of India’s victory over South Africa in the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup final, the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) conducted a special overnight cleanliness drive outside Dr. DY Patil Stadium to manage post-match waste and maintain hygiene in the area.
Coordinated Effort By Civic Officials
The Solid Waste Management Department launched the operation immediately after the final match, anticipating the massive turnout of cricket fans.
Under the guidance of Municipal Commissioner Dr. Kailas Shinde and supervision of Additional Commissioner Sunil Pawar, the drive was executed with the coordination of Deputy Commissioner Dr. Ajay Gadade, sanitation officers, and inspectors from the Nerul division.
11 Tonnes Of Waste Collected
More than 40 sanitation workers participated in the operation, collecting about 11 tonnes of waste, which was promptly transported to the Turbhe Solid Waste Management Project site for processing.
Similar Operations During Tournament Matches
Similar late-night clean-up operations had earlier been carried out after matches held at DY Patil Stadium on October 20, 23, 26, and 30 during the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025.
The final match on November 2 also witnessed the same overnight effort that continued until dawn to ensure the area remained spotless, said a spokesperson from NMMC.
