Access to Basic Services

Basic services such as potable safe drinking water, proper sanitation, electricity, primary education and health essential for improving the quality of life

Despite heavy investments, a large population in the country continues to remain deprived of essential services.

Slums rarely connected to city infrastructure Rapid urbanisation is straining existing

infrastructure


Costs of not investing in infrastructure for Basic services

15 lakh children lose their lives to diarrhoea every year in India

3 crore 77 lakh people are affected by waterborne diseases every year leading to a loss of 7 crore 30 lakh working days each year

Safe water and sanitation can go a long way in minimizing risk by reducing the incidence of diarrhoea and other water borne diseases


Demonstrate ways a community can be empowered and enabled to execute and manage adequate safe drinking water as per their needs and affordability, where the Municipal Corporation do not have any plan to provide piped water supply in near future

It is a small network in which Community Water and Sanitation Committees (CWASCs) makes available water supply to the poor immediately and operates the system for a certain time
