Providing housing facilities to all citizens |
Providing housing facilities to all citizens is not one of the primary objectives of Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM). The Government of India with its flagship programme Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) aims at a pollution-free environment. Its objectives are : • making India open defecation-free (A) and achieving 100 per cent scientific management of municipal solid waste, construction of individual household latrines (IHHL), community toilet (CT) seats and public toilet (PT) seats; • making provisions for the supply of clean energy fuel LPG to all households in rural India (B) to reduce domestic pollution; • providing potable drinking water to every household (C) to control the spread of water-borne diseases; and • promoting the use of non-convention energy resources, like wind and solar energy. |
