Sanitation
Sanitation is not only the disposal of human excreta as it is being understood. Rather, it is a
comprehensive concept which includes seven components like safe disposal of human
excreta,usage and maintenace of safe drinking water,personal hygiene,food and home
hygiene,safe disposal of solid waste,safe disposal of liquid waste,community/environment
cleanliness.So, sanitation is not just about creating toilets, it is a much larger issue

include Diarrhoea, Dysentry, Cholera, Malaria, Hepatitis, Jaundice,Guinea worms,Hook
worms,Round worms, Typhoid, Trachoma, Schistosomiasis and Intestinal helminth,causing
huge economic loss to the economy in terms of loss of health,work days,stunted physical and
mental growth,tourism, school days.
About 25% of total 16 lakh deaths in the world are caused due to water borne diseases, 4.5
lakh happen in India and of these 90% are children below 5 years

Modi Selected 9 notable public figures to propagate this campaign
The total cost estimate for the Mission is Rs. 62,009 crore, out
of which the Central Government’s contribution amounts to
Rs.14,623 crore.
The funding pattern between the Central Government and the
State Government/ Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) is
75%:25%(90% : 10% for North Eastern and special category
states).
Project Funding
The Bio-digester technology has been developed by Gwalior-based Defence Research and Development Establishment (DRDE) and Tezpur based Defence Research Laboratory (DRL), with an objective for resolving the problems of
un-decomposed human waste.
The innovation degrades and converts the human waste into usable water and gasses in an eco-friendly manner.
The generated gas can be utilised for energy/cooking and water for irrigation purposes.
The process involves the bacteria which feed upon the faecal matter inside the tank, through anaerobic process which finally degrades the matter and releases methane gas that can be used for cooking, along with the treated water.
Technology & Research
Initiative Taken by Panjab University
CHALLENGES
The current system of financing sanitation is fragmented between the national and state governments which
poses several delivery challenges
Lack of proper waste disposal systems
There is general lack of awareness, especially in the
rural areas, about the importance of proper
sanitation
Socio-economic factors like poverty
and caste discrimination among the poor and SCs/STs
have led to lower reach of sanitation and clean drinking water
among them.
