The ONGC Rajahmundry Asset executive director, DMR Sekhar said that the organisation was intensely working towards realizing the goals of Swachha Bharat as envisioned by Government of India.

The ONGC already agreed to construct as many as 13 pre-fabricated toilets with an estimated cost of Rs 2.55 crore. Out of five toilets proposed for installation this year, two toilets were installed. The remaining toilets would be taken up speedily, he added.
