Key Features

  • Objective: It is inevitable that the main objective of the scheme is to have a clean state. Also by providing private toilets the probability of having diseases will get down. For the women of the family it would be better to use private toilets for hygiene and safety.
  • Clean India Mission Rural Scheme: It is a Central government led scheme that provides a handful of money to the rural families to build toilets in their homes.

How it Works

The officials will give a written form of trust and acceptance letter to the applicants. Then the applicants will have to show the design / blue print of the toilet to the Gram Panchayat.
  • Once the designs will be approved the money will be sanctioned in the name of the beneficiary. The money will come to the Gram Panchayat from the state authority. As soon as the money will be sent to the panchayat, beneficiary will receive it in their bank account.
  • After that the beneficiary needs to start working on the toilet immediately. The second instalment will be disbursed after few days. By that time a part of construction work must be done.
