Vyomini Social Foundation Signs MoU with Public Police to Promote Sanitation and Hygiene Awareness Among NCR Police Personnel

New Delhi, November 03, 2025: Vyomini Social Foundation has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Public Police, a non-governmental organisation headed by Justice K.G. Balakrishnan (Retd.), former Chief Justice of India and former Chairperson of the National Human Rights Commission, to promote sustainable sanitation, menstrual hygiene management, and healthy lifestyle practices among police personnel across the National Capital Region (NCR).

The one-year collaboration will focus on sensitisation and training programmes for police officers and staff at police stations to improve hygiene practices, strengthen sanitation infrastructure, and raise awareness about menstrual health. The initiative will also support skill development among sanitation workers and promote entrepreneurship opportunities within underprivileged communities.

The MoU was formally signed between Ms. Prachi Kaushik, Founder and Director of Vyomini Social Foundation, and Mr. Deo Datta, former Chairman and COO of the Noida Authority, Uttar Pradesh.

Ms. Prachi Kaushik, Founder and Director of Vyomini Social Foundation, said:“Our police personnel play a vital role in maintaining public order, yet their health and hygiene needs often remain overlooked. Through this partnership with Public Police, we aim to bring about sustainable behaviour change and create a healthier, more dignified work environment for them. This initiative reflects our commitment to building cleaner, more inclusive institutions while empowering the communities that serve them.”

The signing ceremony was attended by several eminent dignitaries, including Justice K.G. Balakrishnan (Retd.), Mr. Deo Datta, Mr. Rakesh Kumar Maheshwari, Senior Chartered Accountant; Mr. Prem Kumar Malhotra, former Law Secretary, Government of India; Dr. Ram Karan Verma, former Joint Secretary, Department of Electronics, Government of India; and Mr. Praveen Kumar Bansal, former Vice Chairman, Income Tax Appellate Tribunal.

The gathering also included senior members of the Public Police organisation, comprising retired bureaucrats and officers, who shared their insights on strengthening public-police engagement and promoting sanitation-linked entrepreneurship.

As part of the initiative, Vyomini will facilitate the installation of sanitary vending machines and conduct hygiene sensitisation drives across police stations in the NCR. The collaboration reinforces the shared vision of both organisations — to build healthier, cleaner, and more inclusive workplaces for police personnel while fostering education, skill-building, and entrepreneurship among grassroots communities.
