Cleanliness and sanitation were an integral part of Mahatma Gandhi’s way of life. He dreamt of total sanitation for all and even prioritized sanitation over political independence, bedsides he personally took the effort to achieve the change that he wanted to see. The Swachh Bharat Mission was launched on 2nd October 2014, by the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India with the objective of making India a clean country by the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, i.e. 2nd October, 2019. In response to the Prime Minister’s clarion call, people from all walks of life have enthusiastically joined in the movement to achieve a clean and green country.

HUDCO as a responsible corporate, drafted its own Swachta Action Plan in 2016 and since then, has allocated a budget and identified tasks for phased implementation

of various swachta activities. We have used our own staff and resources, as well as partnered with public to maximize outreach. This issue of Darpan has documented the various initiatives taken by HUDCO offices, under the Swachhta Action Plan, including cleaning our own offices, organizing competitions in schools, beautification of surroundings of office premises, reaching out to the community through public awareness campaigns, and capacity building of stakeholders.

HUDCO officials across the country have made commendable efforts for planning and organizing various activities and each one has contributed to make every event a success. I would like to particularly appreciate the efforts for spreading awareness and promoting the idea of cleanliness among children in schools, through activities like cleaning school classrooms, toilets and surroundings; poster making, painting and essay writing competitions on cleanliness, waste segregation and other related issues. Cleanliness and good hygiene habits bear a close relationship to good health and any habits learned in childhood stay implanted in the mind. Inculcating the value of cleanliness in young minds will pay rich dividends for the country in the future and give much needed momentum to the Clean India Mission.

Cleanliness is not the responsibility of only one person, it is a collective responsibility of each and every individual living in the home, society, community and country. A clean environment promotes a healthy workplace and a more productive workforce. A clean office gives a professional image and conveys a sense of greater productivity and successful business. The repair and renovation of HUDCO offices will go a long way in improving the brand image of the company, and provide a better work environment. Each one of us should take pride in our office and workspace, as it is a reflection of our personality and work ethics.

During the course of the year, we have taken the cleanliness pledge on several occasions and actively participated in all swachta activities. However, cleanliness is not an occasion-based activity or a onetime project and we all should understand the motto, importance and necessity of cleanliness for applying in our daily lives. We need to develop a culture of cleanliness and build intolerance towards squalor, because cleanliness is linked to better health, which further leads to economic growth of the nation.

Dr. M. Ravi KanthChairman & Manging Director

Editorial

Cleanliness and order are not matters of instinct; they are matters of education, and like most great things, you must cultivate a taste for them.

Swachh Survekshan 2019

The Swachh Survekshan exercise was started in 2016 with the objective of engendering a spirit of healthy competition among municipal corporations and urban local bodies around the issue of sanitation and cleanliness. The objectives of swachh survekshan are to encourage citizen participation, increase city capacities for sustainable ODF and sanitation measures and to create awareness amongst all sections of society about the importance of collective action to contribute in India’s journey towards a ‘Swachh Bharat’.

The number of ULBs assessed has progressively increased over the years, from a modest 73 metropolitan cities and state capitals in 2016, to 434 in 2017, to a pan India coverage of 4203 ULBs in 2018, including 61 Cantonment Boards, and finally, a coverage of 4237 ULBs including 62 Cantonment Boards in the current round. Apart from Lakshadweep, which has always remained outside of the ambit of Swachh Survekshans, the state of West Bengal (barring the three CBs within it) had also opted not to participate.

This process of annual survekshans has managed to galvanise and inspire cities to keep on improving and aspire to higher standards of cleanliness.

Evolving Focus of Successive Survekshans

In 2016 and 2017, the Swachh Survekshan indicators were constructed with the purpose of monitoring progress of ULBs towards Swachh Bharat targets. In 2018, the focus (and the indicator constructs) shifted from process and outputs to outcomes. In the current round, having already reached an advanced stage of achieving most of its targets, the Swachh Bharat Mission – Urban had mandated that Swachh Survekshan 2019 focus on sustainability. The measurement indicators within the Survekshan were redesigned to capture whether initiatives taken by cities are sustainable in the long run, thus going beyond ODF status and looking into usability of toilets and unit level faecal sludge management, levels of cleanliness and waste management protocols in place in every ward of a ULB, and bylaws and regulatory compliance. Towards this end, over and above the three pillars of the earlier survekshans, viz. Service Level Progress and Independent Validation, Direct Observation, and Citizen feedback, this year a fourth assessment protocol was introduced by SBM – U, viz. certification of cities on ODF+/ODF++ and Star Rating of Garbage Free Cities by independent third parties. Swachh Survekshan 2019 went 100% digital and included many more indicators which required direct involvement of citizens

BASELINE REPORT, 2018

SDG INDIAINDEX

Evolution of SDGs

The SDGs for 2030 evolved from the Millennium Development Goals(MDGs) for 2015. MDGs were the first global attempt at establishing measurable goals and targets on key challenges facing the world within a single framework and galvanised countries and communities into action. Several regions of the world saw rapid and continuous economic growth, and millions of people were lifted out of poverty during this period. However, new set of challenges arose. As a result, in 2015, SDGs came into being to address these challenges with more universal, comprehensive and inclusive nature of goals compared with the MDGs.

A mapping of the SDGs against MDGs reveals that SDGs are more detailed and nuanced than the MDGs, with addition of some specific goals on inequality, climate change, environmental sustainability, urbanisation, governance and partnerships (including means of implementation). The SDGs emphasize on aspects which were merely touched upon by the MDGs, making them more inclusive and wider in scope, but also more difficult to quantify.

India and the SDGs

The Parliament of India has taken exemplary initiatives to propel the SDG agenda forward. India is already taking significant strides towards attainment of SDGs. India’s National Development Agenda outlines the measures the Government is taking on issues like poverty, sustainable growth, health, nutrition, gender equality and quality education, among several others.

NITI Aayog is mandated with the task of coordinating a synergistic approach, involving central ministries, States/Union Territories, civil society organisations, academia and business sector to achieve India’s SDG targets. A comprehensive mapping of SGD targets with schemes and programmes has been developed.

Introducing the SDG India Index 2018

Given the importance accorded by the Government of India to achieving SDGs, NITI Aayog decided to estimate the progress through a single measurable

Introducing the SDG India Index

Extract from SDG India Index Baseline Report 2018; Source:http://niti.gov.in/writereaddata/files/SDX_Index_India_21.12.2018.pdf

About the Report

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set out a universal and an unprecedented agenda which embraces economic, environmental and social aspects of the wellbeing of societies. India played a prominent role in the formulation of SDGs and much of the country’s National Development Agenda is mirrored in the SDGs. However, with 17 Goals, 169 Targets and 306 National indicators, the SDGs might be difficult to grasp and understand. Defining and measuring success pose a challenge as well. This report shows how SDGs will be measured in India. The indicators shall be refined, data collection and reporting processes shall be improved, and the potential for disaggregating data shall be explored over the coming years.

SDGs: A Global Perspective

The SDGs are a bold universal set of 17 Goals and 169 targets to help organise and streamline development actions for greater achievement of human wellbeing, while leaving no one behind – by 2030.

index that would serve as an advocacy tool and trigger action at the State level.

NITI Aayog has constructed the SDG India Index spanning across 13 out of 17 SDGs (leaving out Goals 12,13,14 and 17). The Index tracks the progress of all the States and UTs on a set of 62 Priority Indicators, measuring their progress on the outcomes of the interventions and schemes of the Government of India. The SDG India Index is intended to provide a holistic view on the social, economic and environmental status of the country and its States and UTs.

The SDG India Index is an aggregate measure which can be understood and used by everyone—policymakers, businesses, civil society and the general public. It has been designed to provide an aggregate assessment of the performance of all Indian States and UTs, and to help leaders and change makers evaluate their performance on social, economic and environ mental parameters. It aims to measure India and its States’ progress towards the SDGs for 2030.

Key features of the SDG India Index 2018

Guided by MoSPI’s National Indicator Framework and based on consultations with Central Ministries/Departments and States/ UTs, NITI Aayog has constructed a list of 62 priority indicators. To determine suitable metrics for inclusion in the Index, technically sound, quantitative indicators were chosen that met the following criteria:i. Relevance to the SDG targets

ii. ii. Guided by the National Indicator Framework

iii. Availability of data at national level for States and UTs from official statistical systems

iv. Consent from respective Ministries/Departments

v. Ownership of data by the data source ministries

vi. Sufficient data coverage, such that data for at least 50 percent of the States/UTs is available

Sixty two priority indicators were selected for computation of the SDG India Index after extensive discussions with 38 Central Ministries/Departments and sates and UTs. Being the baseline report, this report does not consider time series comparison of data. As a result, the SDG India Index tells us where

a State/UT currently stands on each of the indicators considered, and will present incremental change in subsequent versions.

Composite SDG India Index, 2018

About the SDG India Index

A composite score was computed for each State and UT of India based on their aggregate performance across 13 of the 17 SDGs. The value of the score indicates the average performance of the State/UT towards achieving the 13 SDGs and their respective targets. The score ranges between 0 and 100. If a State achieves a score of 100, it signifies that the State has achieved the national target set for 2030. On the other hand, the if a State achieves a score of 0, it signifies that the State was the worst performer.

The SDG Index Score for Sustainable Development Goals 2030 ranges between 42 and 69 for States and between 57 and 68 for UTs. Among the States, Kerala and Himachal Pradesh are the front runners with an SDG India Index score of 69. Among the UTs, Chandigarh is a front runner with a score of 68.

Kerala’s top rank is attributed to its superior performance in providing good health, reducing hunger, achieving gender equality and providing quality education. Himachal Pradesh ranks high on providing clean water and sanitation, in reducing inequalities and preserving mountain ecosystem. Among the UTs, Chandigarh takes the lead because of its exemplary performance in providing clean water and sanitation to its people. It has further made good progress towards providing affordable and clean energy, generating decent work and economic growth, and providing quality education.

SDG 6: ENSURE AVAILABILITY AND SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF WATER AND SANITATION FOR ALL

The Global Agenda

Goal 6 aims to improve water quality by reducing pollution, substantially increasing water-use efficiency across all sectors and supporting and strengthening the participation of local communities in improving water and sanitation management.

The National Context

Access to safe drinking water and sanitation is one of the most pressing challenges in the country and is being addressed by the government on a priority basis. As per 2011 Census data, 85.5 percent population had access to safe drinking water whereas only 30.8 percent of the households in rural areas had toilet facilities. While striving to ensure full access to water for all, robust efforts are being taken to optimize water resource endowments in the country. It is important to take an integrated, balanced approach to managing water resources towards effective water governance. The allocation of water among various uses needs to be carefully planned to ensure sustainability. Research and development efforts need to be targeted at improving water use efficiency as fresh water becomes a scarce resource.

The Government of India is committed to providing safe drinking water and access to sanitation to all habitations by 2022. National initiatives like the Swachh Bharat Mission, National Rural Drinking Water Programme and National Mission for Clean Ganga - Namami

Gange have provided the necessary thrust to India’s commitment on providing universal access to clean water and sanitation to all. As a result of the Swachh Bharat Mission, as of November 2018, 96 percent of the targeted household toilets have been constructed and 3.9 lakh villages across India have been constructed and 3.9 lakh villages across India have been verified to be open defecation free. However, sanitation in India is a major challenge where the government has a mammoth task, of not only constructing toilets for all but also of raising awareness and influencing behaviour change so that people understand the risks of open defecation and begin to use these toilets.

India SDG Index – Goal 6

To measure India’s performance towards clean water and sanitation, five national level indicators have been identified, which capture three out of the eight SDG targets for 2030 outlined under this Goal. These indicators have been selected based on availability of data at national level and to ensure comparability across States and UTs.z

Goal 6 Index ScoreThe SDG Index Score for the Goal of clean water and sanitation ranges between 31 and 100 for states and between 45 and 100 for UTs. Among the States, Gujarat has achieved a full score of 100. The same score is shared by Chandigarh, Dadra and Nagar Haveli, and

Lakshadweep, among UTs. Eleven states and UTs are Front Runners (with index score greater than or equal to 65 and less than 100), while eight states and UTs are categorised as Aspirants(with index scores less than 50).

Swachhta Pledge Mahatma Gandhi dreamt of an India

which was not only free but also clean and developed.

Mahatma Gandhi secured freedom for Mother India.

Now it is our duty to serve Mother India by keeping the country neat and clean.

I take this pledge that I will remain committed towards cleanliness and devote

time for this.

I will devote 100 hours per year, that is two hours per week, to voluntarily work for

cleanliness.

I will neither litter not let others litter.

I will initiate the quest for cleanliness with myself, my family, my locality, my village

and my work place.

I believe that the countries of the world that appear clean are so because their citizens don’t indulge in littering nor do they allow it

to happen.

With this firm belief, I will propagate the message of Swachh Bharat Mission in

villages and towns.

I will encourage 100 other persons to take this pledge which I am taking today.

I will endeavour to make them devote their 100 hours for cleanliness.

I am confident that every step I take towards cleanliness will help in making my

country clean.
