Nagar Nigam Muzaffarpur, Bihar-Swachh Bharat-100X Double barrel Fogging Machine
Nagar Nigam Muzaffarpur, Bihar — Swachh Bharat, Health




The Challenge
Muzaffarpur, the second-largest city in Bihar, is a major commercial and administrative hub in northern India. With a population exceeding one million people across its municipal wards, the city faces significant public-health challenges from vector-borne diseases — particularly during monsoon and post-monsoon seasons when stagnant water provides ideal breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Nagar Nigam Muzaffarpur (Muzaffarpur Municipal Corporation), under the Swachh Bharat Mission, undertook a strategic initiative to procure vehicle-mounted thermal fogging machines capable of conducting city-wide anti-mosquito operations across all wards. The corporation sought a robust, high-capacity solution deployable on short notice during disease outbreaks.
The Solution
100X Circle is a leading Indian manufacturer of professional-grade fogging and pest control equipment, supplying municipal corporations, government agencies, and commercial enterprises across India. The company's product range is listed on the Government e-Marketplace (GeM), enabling seamless procurement by government bodies. Key Features: 100X Double Barrel Fogging Machine (Vehicle-Mounted) ► Double barrel configuration — delivers twice the fogging output compared to single-barrel units, covering larger ward areas in less time ► Vehicle-mounted design — can be fitted onto standard 3-wheeler or 4-wheeler vehicles (CNG/diesel), allowing mobility across narrow lanes and major roads ► High chemical efficiency — precise nozzle calibration minimises pesticide wastage while maximising droplet distribution ► Durable construction — suitable for Indian weather conditions, from extreme summer heat to monsoon humidity ► Ease of operation — simple controls allow field workers to operate without specialised training ► GeM-listed OEM product — comes with full OEM certification and after-sales support documentation ► Customisable configuration — engine capacity, output rate, and mounting brackets can be tailored to specific vehicle and municipal requirements
Results
Operational Impact & Benefits The deployment of 100X Double Barrel Fogging Machines across Muzaffarpur is expected to deliver significant public-health and operational benefits: Public Health Benefits ► Citywide reduction in mosquito populations through systematic, regular fogging of all 49 municipal wards ► Significant containment of dengue, malaria and chikungunya transmission cycles during peak outbreak seasons ► Faster emergency response capability — vehicle-mounted units can be dispatched within hours of outbreak alerts ► Improved quality of life for citizens in densely populated residential areas, markets and public spaces Operational Advantages ► Double barrel output covers twice the area per sortie compared to single-barrel machines — maximising ward coverage ► CNG-powered vehicle mounting reduces operational costs and aligns with Swachh Bharat green mobility goals ► Simple maintenance and operator training — field sanitation workers up-skilled on-site during demonstration ► Scalable — additional machines can be procured through the same GeM channel as city requirements grow Procurement & Governance Benefits ► Full GeM compliance ensures transparency, auditability and cost-effectiveness for taxpayer money ► L1 (lowest price) evaluation confirms value-for-money without compromising on technical quality ► OEM-backed supply chain with warranty and after-sales support reduces lifecycle cost and downtime risk
