The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has made significant progress under Mission 6, clearing over 3.42 lakh square feet of space and generating 49.46 crore rupees from scrap disposal.

Wednesday, 28 October 2026 – According to the official update released on that date, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has made remarkable progress under its flagship contract “Special Campaign 6.” This campaign was launched to effectively manage the ministry’s assets and offices, vacate sites, and eliminate clutter. Over the past few months, joint efforts by ministry officials and related agencies have vacated more than 342,000 square feet of commercial and functional space. This achievement not only demonstrates increased operational efficiency but also marks a significant step toward better utilization of government property.

Another major success of the campaign has been seen in the disposal of scrap and obsolete equipment. The ministry has ensured the disposal of old and derelict assets through legitimate procedures. Under this process, the sale and disposal of collected scrap generated a total of 4,946,000,000 rupees, which has been deposited into the ministry’s account. This amount represents a substantial financial contribution to the government treasury, showing that significant returns can be achieved even when assets are not properly maintained.

The original objective of Special Campaign 6 was to remove useless items accumulating in ministry offices and make workspaces more functional. The progress to date clearly indicates that the ministry has succeeded in achieving its set goals. Vacating more than 342,000 square feet of space is a major accomplishment, allowing the ministry to readily provide space for other important projects or functional needs. Additionally, the 4,946,000,000 rupees earned can be used for the ministry’s other development plans and infrastructure upgrades.

According to government sources, a special team monitored the work carried out under this campaign, ensuring that the disposal process was fully transparent and compliant with regulations. This success is the result of administrative reforms in the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, prioritizing financial discipline and asset management. In the coming days, the ministry has announced that it will continue to make steady efforts to complete the remaining actions of Special Campaign 6, further enhancing administrative efficiency. This progress has been presented as a positive example in government media and internal reports, potentially inspiring other departments.
