However, the overall performance of Uttarakhand has experienced a decline, dropping from the 3rd position to the 19th position this year. Expressing optimism, Chief Health Officer of Dehradun, Dr. Avinash Khanna, stated, "We were aiming for a place among the top 60 cities, and while this is still an improvement, we acknowledge the need to focus on specific areas that require further attention."

Despite the positive strides made by the capital, the downturn in the state's overall performance underscores the importance of addressing challenges at a broader level. The authorities are determined to channel efforts towards enhancing cleanliness and sanitation across the region.
