For any social and economic development, adequate sanitation in conjunction with good hygiene and safe water are essential to good health. A lack of sanitation and hygiene contributes to arrange of health and environmental problems. The resulting sickness causes suffering, and loss of opportunities to earn a living or gain an education.

The programme is aimed at creating a clean India by 2019 with people's participation.
