| Summary: | In the Indian federal structure, rural
sanitation is a state government responsibility. However,
since this sector has been identified as a development
priority, the Government of India provides the bulk of
investment through a Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS). The
Central Rural Sanitation Program was launched as the first
CSS in 1986. This program has subsequently been restructured
as the Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) in 1999, Nirmal
Bharat Abhiyan (NBA) in 2012 and, most recently, as the
Swachh Bharat Mission—Gramin (SBMG) or Clean India
Mission—Rural in December 2014. This learning note presents
findings of an sanitation assessment in India. |
