To make India 'Swachh Bharat', a few of these steps can be followed. Every house in rural areas should have a toilet. For that, apart from the subsidy given by the government at present, there should be a loan component of up to Rs 50,000 so that everyone can construct a good functional toilet.

Affordable Sanitation for the Masses
Istarted my journey in the year 1968, when in rural areas and urban fringes, no house had a toilet. Women had to suffer the most. People used to go for open defecation. Girls did not want to go to schools due to the inconvenience.
The ´dirty´ task
Though the ´Swacch Bharat Abhiyan´ has been gathering steam, the litmus test is the on-ground execution of the elaborate plans and proposals. Collective responsibility is the key to success.
