Garbage Free City
The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MOHUA) launched the Protocol for Star Rating of Garbage
Free cities in order to institutionalize a mechanism for cities to achieve Garbage Free status and to
motivate cities to achieve higher degrees of cleanliness.
The protocol follows a graded approach through which cities are evaluated and given a graded score for
each component as per the progress achieved by the cities. The protocol is, based on 18 components.
Further, these components have been divided into Important and Aspirational indicators and allocated
respective marks. A city may score anywhere between level 1 (minimum) to level 4 as per its performance.
Thus, a city can be declared as “Garbage Free City” and achieve Star Rating certification if it complies
with the conditions as prescribed under this protocol.
Protocols
1. 10 Components with Important (7) & Aspirational (3) categories and respective weightages assigned.
2. 4 Star Ratings.
3. Certifications for all 4-star ratings to be conducted by the third party appointed by MoHUA.
4. In case a city fails for the applied star, it will be validated and certified for a lower star.
5. Graded Scoring: A city may score anywhere between level 1 (minimum) to level 4 as per its
performance. Additionally, for ward level parameters, every ward will be evaluated for each
component followed by an average score of all wards will be considered as the final score of that
component. In case a city does not score at least level 1 in any of the important components, it will
not be considered eligible for the star rating.
