With the hiring of the cleanliness in-charges for every building the role of the in-charge has also been specified. The in-charge will be responsible to keep a note on the hygiene of the washrooms, sweeping of the floors and overall cleanliness and hygiene of the building.

  • Regular sweeping of the floors must be conducted
  • Washrooms must be clean and hygienic
  • Will hold the entire team of sweepers and cleaners.
  • Ensures ample dustbins are available in the building or not.

University sources said that, currently there is no one who is taking the responsibility of cleanliness in the building and the scenario of cleanliness was getting worse day-by-day.

All this being set, the major task among all these is to maintain the hygiene of the hostels and its washroom to be specific. Another problem that is upfront with the PU staff in Chandigarh is the waste disposal. After cleanliness the major concerning issue remains of the waste disposal. Currently, you can see the heaps of garbage piling on in the corners of the university making the place unhygienic and unhealthy. This indicates the poor disposal systems in the university.
