✎ Special Campaign 6.0 aims to clear pending files and manage e-waste efficiently across MOSPI offices.
Relevance for Banking, SSC & RBI Grade B exams: Polity & Governance
The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has been conducting the Special Campaign for Disposal of Pending Matters (SCDPM) annually since 2021 to expedite the clearance of backlog files across government offices. Under SCDPM 5.0 (November 2025–August 2026), MoSPI achieved notable progress, including the review of 5,617 physical and e-files, disposal of 4,680 e-files, and closure of 467 physical files, along with the settlement of 426 public grievances and 65 appeals. Additionally, 61 cleanliness drives were conducted, and scrap worth ₹34,105 was disposed of, while prioritizing the resolution of references from the Prime Minister’s Office, state governments, and Parliament. These efforts underscore MoSPI’s commitment to administrative efficiency and governance reforms, aligning with broader government initiatives for transparency and accountability.
Special Campaign 6.0, launched from 2 to 31 October 2026, focuses on the effective collection, segregation, and disposal of e-waste in regional offices. The campaign is structured in two phases: a preparation phase (15–30 September 2026) to institutionalize cleanliness and identify pending matters, and an implementation phase (2–31 October 2026) to address backlog references, assess surplus materials, and strengthen record management. For banking, SSC, and RBI Grade B aspirants, this initiative highlights the importance of administrative reforms, digital governance, and sustainable practices in public sector management—key themes often tested in exams like the IBPS PO, SBI Clerk, and RBI Grade B. Understanding such campaigns also provides insights into government policies on waste management and e-governance, which are relevant for questions on governance and current affairs.
