CMGGA - Chief Minister's Good Governance Associates Programme

In the area of Solid Waste Management, CMGGAs went beyond strengthening door-to-door waste collection by promoting Jan Bhagidari as a core pillar of sustainable Swachhta. Through citizen engagement and community mobilisation, they reinforced the idea that lasting cleanliness depends on shared responsibility and active public participation.

In close coordination with Urban Local Bodies, CMGGAs supported the formation of over 1,500 Ward Committees across 87 ULBs under the Haryana Municipal Citizens’ Participation Act, 2008, while also facilitating member trainings to strengthen local governance and civic awareness.

Subsequent interactions with Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Nayab Singh Saini further encouraged ward committee members to contribute actively towards route mapping, waste segregation, grievance redressal, and awareness generation in their respective wards. These efforts continue to advance the vision of a Clean and Green Haryana through responsive and participatory governance.

Strengthening door-to-door waste collection is only one step toward cleaner communities. Through the SWM module, CMGGAs also tapped a much bigger pillar of Swachhta : Jan Bhagidari by encouraging shared responsibility, collective action, and deeper citizen participation. Working closely with Urban Local Bodies, they supported the formation of over 1,500 Ward Committees across 87 ULBs under the Haryana Municipal Citizens’ Participation Act, 2008, while also facilitating trainings to strengthen local governance and civic awareness. With continued guidance from Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Nayab Singh Saini and active engagement with ward committee members, these efforts are helping advance the vision of a Clean and Green Haryana.

Hon'ble CM Shri Nayab Singh Saini Ji reviewed the on-ground work of Chief Minister’s Good Governance Associates (CMGGAs) in a focused meeting at Chandigarh. CMGGAs presented district updates on solid waste management, HR management, Rapid Swachh Survekshan preparedness, and pre-budget FGDs that captured citizen and stakeholder priorities.
The Chief Minister also reviewed the findings, asked for clear timelines, and directed quick action to remove bottlenecks and improve visible outcomes. This review marked a strong step towards good governance and better last-mile service delivery, where planning is backed by real field evidence.
This month, CMGGAs stayed focused on gap analysis: identifying what is working, what is missing, and what needs urgent course correction. Gap analysis is at the core of any good governance reform, because it turns feedback into action and helps districts deliver faster, cleaner, and more accountable public services.

Presenting the first edition of ‘सुशासन frames’ – a fortnightly snapshot of Chief Minister's Good Governance Associates Programme in action across Haryana.

January 2026 began with an interaction with Hon’ble Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini Ji, followed by the deployment of associates across 23 districts. Over the month, CMGGAs engaged with district administrations, urban local bodies and frontline institutions to understand how schemes and services are reaching citizens on the ground.

From early field immersions to structured work on the Swachh Haryana waste management value chain, associates focused on listening, mapping gaps and supporting collaborative solutions. Engagements with spaces like Observation Homes and Samadhan Shivirs further deepened our understanding of protection and grievance redressal systems.

‘सुशासन frames’ captures these beginnings as we collectively work towards more responsive, data‑informed and citizen‑centric governance in Haryana.
