Swachh Bharat Abhiyan - Towards Health and Dignity Improving Water Sanitation & Hygiene in Madhya Pradesh
Prime Minister Narendra Modi called for making ‘Swachh Bharat’ into a mass movement and linking it to economic activity to ensure greater participation. ‘Mission Swachh Bharat’ (clean India) launched on October 2, with Mahatma Gandhi as the inspiration, to create a clean India of his dreams by 2019 on his 150th birth anniversary.
In the context of the declaration of the plan to achieve Swachh Bharat by 2019, the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation has prepared a note on the Swachh Bharat Mission. Swachh Bharat Abhiyan: The present goal under NBA is to achieve 100% access to sanitation for all rural households by 2022. Under Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (SBA), the Goal is now preponed to make India Open Defecation Free (ODF) by 2019 by construction of individual, cluster & community toilets; and villages will be kept clean, including through solid and liquid waste management through Gram Panchayats. Water pipelines have to be laid to all villages enabling tap connection into households on demand by 2019.In this matter, co-operation and convergence of all Ministries, Central & State schemes, CSR & bilateral/multilateral assistance may become necessary as well as new & innovative ways of funding such interventions.
MP WASH program is active in 16 Districts of the state with objective of availability of Clean Drinking Water, Zero Open Defecation, Personal Hygiene, Clean Villages and Health Education. WaterAid an International Organization in collaboration with DFID is working in various states in raising awareness towards clean drinking water, construction of toilets and its usage and personal hygiene
