Only 15 of the capital cities surveyed figured among the top 100 performers while five were ranked beyond 300. Patna came at the bottom at 429. While the New Delhi Municipal Area (essentially central Lutyen’s Delhi) was 16th cleanest municipality on the list, immediately outside the circle of power things were starkly different. The rest of Delhi ranked 379th on a list of 476 cities. Even the pride of Delhi – the elite Lutyen’s zone could only manage a 16th rank. Among the bottom 100 cities, 74 are from North, 21 from East, three from West and two from South.
