Under Swachh Bharat Mission- Grameen Phase-I between 2014-15 and 2019-20, over 10.14 crore Individual household latrines (IHHLs) were constructed, and a massive behaviour change campaign carried out, leading all villages, districts, and states to declare themselves Open Defecation Free (ODF) by October 2, 2019. This monumental achievement was a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi on his 150th birth anniversary, with households having access to toilets increasing from 39% in October 2014 to 100% in October 2019. States and UTs were advised to ensure no household should be left behind, covering any remaining households (left out & newly emerging) under the program.
Having achieved the ODF status, Phase II of SBM(G) is being implemented with the objective inter-alia to sustain the ODF status of villages. Realizing that the task of constructing toilets is a continuous process and not a one-time activity, as there are continuously new emerging households, migrant households etc. which will require Toilets, construction of new Individual Household Latrines (IHHLs) (Toilets) continues to be the first charge on SBM(G) funds and states are advised continuously to plan for left out toilets and address this gap on priority. In co-ordination with the PMAY(G) programme also, there is a provision to provide toilets to eligible beneficiaries along with the house from SBM(G) funds. It is due to all these measures, that even in Phase II of the programme almost 1.43 crore toilets have been built in the last 4 years and current year.
