Election has given back our original clean cities

Written by Shashank Pore

Imagine a city where the streets are not just pathways but symbols of civic pride and responsibility. As we witness the transformative effects of the election season and its Model Code of Conduct, it’s inspiring to see our cities adorned with cleanliness and orderliness.

For the past three months, we’ve experienced a refreshing sight: streets, bus stands, traffic signals, and street corners free from unauthorized political billboards. This isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s a testament to the power of collective action and adherence to democratic norms.

The Model Code of Conduct isn’t just a set of rules; it’s a promise—a promise to uphold the sanctity of our electoral process and, inadvertently, to nurture our urban spaces. The clean streets we’ve enjoyed during this period remind us of what’s possible when we prioritize accountability and civic duty.

But here’s the question: Can we sustain this cleanliness beyond the election fervor? Can we envision a city where the streets remain uncluttered, not just for three months but for the entirety of five years?

The answer lies within us—the citizens, the policymakers, and the custodians of our democracy. It requires a shift in mindset, a commitment to responsible advertising practices, and robust enforcement mechanisms. It demands collaboration between political parties, local authorities, and civil society.

Let’s not let the momentum fade away with the end of elections. Let’s strive for a city where cleanliness is not a seasonal affair but a way of life. Together, let’s envision and work towards a future where our streets shine bright with the spirit of democracy every single day. 🌟🏙️
