&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The Centre plans to remove the distinction between below poverty line (BPL) and above poverty line (APL) and bring all the needy under the Total Sanitation Scheme (TSC). It would be renamed as Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan to send home the message that its implementation would be a people&#039;s movement rather than a bureaucratic programme.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The new scheme will be part of the structural changes to be introduced from April. Union Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh, who also holds the portfolio of Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation, on Tuesday made a presentation on the changes proposed before the full Planning Commission.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh said the sanitation scheme would cover all needy people since 60 per cent of the population was defecating in the open. This practice was derogatory to the dignity of women and posed a danger to their security. He maintained that India would be freed of the practice within 10 years.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The structural changes were proposed to carry forward the drinking water and sanitation campaign in the 12th Five-Year Plan which would see a significant increase in the outlay.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Increase in outlay&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The current outlay of about Rs.11,000 crore was likely to be increased by about 40 to 60 per cent, Mr. Ramesh said, adding that more funds would be allocated for sanitation purposes.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The help of women self-help groups (SHGs) and civil society groups and banks would be engaged in a major way to provide toilets. People were willing to take loans to meet part of the cost for construction of toilets.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Toilet cost structure&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Hence, the cost structure would include a part of government subsidy, individual&#039;s contribution and bank loan. Providing loan for sanitation purpose would be brought under the category of priority lending.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Terming the present cost of Rs.3,000 permitted under the TSC as &amp;ldquo;ridiculous,&amp;rdquo; Mr. Ramesh said the proposal was to increase it to reasonable levels of Rs.7,000 to Rs.10,000 per unit.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The objective is not only to scale down the targets but ensure full coverage and that would be done by shifting the focus from individual households to gram panchayats. There are only 25,000 nirmal gram panchayats so far out of the 2.5-lakh panchayats in the country.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh also held a meeting with all the NGOs attached with the sanitation campaign to seek their extended partnership in achieving the national goal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Stressing that Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee had accepted his proposal, Mr. Ramesh said it was time the focus of spending was on social sectors which private players avoided rather than give bailout packages for commercial entities such as airliners and railways which were supposed to run their operations in a professional manner.
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The Centre plans to remove the distinction between below poverty line (BPL) and above poverty line (APL) and bring all the needy under the Total Sanitation Scheme (TSC). It would be renamed as Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan to send home the message that its implementation would be a people&#039;s movement rather than a bureaucratic programme.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The new scheme will be part of the structural changes to be introduced from April. Union Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh, who also holds the portfolio of Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation, on Tuesday made a presentation on the changes proposed before the full Planning Commission.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh said the sanitation scheme would cover all needy people since 60 per cent of the population was defecating in the open. This practice was derogatory to the dignity of women and posed a danger to their security. He maintained that India would be freed of the practice within 10 years.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The structural changes were proposed to carry forward the drinking water and sanitation campaign in the 12th Five-Year Plan which would see a significant increase in the outlay.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Increase in outlay&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The current outlay of about Rs.11,000 crore was likely to be increased by about 40 to 60 per cent, Mr. Ramesh said, adding that more funds would be allocated for sanitation purposes.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The help of women self-help groups (SHGs) and civil society groups and banks would be engaged in a major way to provide toilets. People were willing to take loans to meet part of the cost for construction of toilets.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Toilet cost structure&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Hence, the cost structure would include a part of government subsidy, individual&#039;s contribution and bank loan. Providing loan for sanitation purpose would be brought under the category of priority lending.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Terming the present cost of Rs.3,000 permitted under the TSC as &amp;ldquo;ridiculous,&amp;rdquo; Mr. Ramesh said the proposal was to increase it to reasonable levels of Rs.7,000 to Rs.10,000 per unit.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The objective is not only to scale down the targets but ensure full coverage and that would be done by shifting the focus from individual households to gram panchayats. There are only 25,000 nirmal gram panchayats so far out of the 2.5-lakh panchayats in the country.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh also held a meeting with all the NGOs attached with the sanitation campaign to seek their extended partnership in achieving the national goal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Stressing that Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee had accepted his proposal, Mr. Ramesh said it was time the focus of spending was on social sectors which private players avoided rather than give bailout packages for commercial entities such as airliners and railways which were supposed to run their operations in a professional manner.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The Centre plans to remove the distinction between below poverty line (BPL) and above poverty line (APL) and bring all the needy under the Total Sanitation Scheme (TSC). It would be renamed as Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan to send home the message that its implementation would be a people&#039;s movement rather than a bureaucratic programme.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The new scheme will be part of the structural changes to be introduced from April. Union Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh, who also holds the portfolio of Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation, on Tuesday made a presentation on the changes proposed before the full Planning Commission.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh said the sanitation scheme would cover all needy people since 60 per cent of the population was defecating in the open. This practice was derogatory to the dignity of women and posed a danger to their security. He maintained that India would be freed of the practice within 10 years.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The structural changes were proposed to carry forward the drinking water and sanitation campaign in the 12th Five-Year Plan which would see a significant increase in the outlay.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Increase in outlay&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The current outlay of about Rs.11,000 crore was likely to be increased by about 40 to 60 per cent, Mr. Ramesh said, adding that more funds would be allocated for sanitation purposes.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The help of women self-help groups (SHGs) and civil society groups and banks would be engaged in a major way to provide toilets. People were willing to take loans to meet part of the cost for construction of toilets.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Toilet cost structure&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Hence, the cost structure would include a part of government subsidy, individual&#039;s contribution and bank loan. Providing loan for sanitation purpose would be brought under the category of priority lending.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Terming the present cost of Rs.3,000 permitted under the TSC as &amp;ldquo;ridiculous,&amp;rdquo; Mr. Ramesh said the proposal was to increase it to reasonable levels of Rs.7,000 to Rs.10,000 per unit.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The objective is not only to scale down the targets but ensure full coverage and that would be done by shifting the focus from individual households to gram panchayats. There are only 25,000 nirmal gram panchayats so far out of the 2.5-lakh panchayats in the country.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh also held a meeting with all the NGOs attached with the sanitation campaign to seek their extended partnership in achieving the national goal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Stressing that Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee had accepted his proposal, Mr. Ramesh said it was time the focus of spending was on social sectors which private players avoided rather than give bailout packages for commercial entities such as airliners and railways which were supposed to run their operations in a professional manner.
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The Centre plans to remove the distinction between below poverty line (BPL) and above poverty line (APL) and bring all the needy under the Total Sanitation Scheme (TSC). It would be renamed as Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan to send home the message that its implementation would be a people&#039;s movement rather than a bureaucratic programme.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The new scheme will be part of the structural changes to be introduced from April. Union Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh, who also holds the portfolio of Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation, on Tuesday made a presentation on the changes proposed before the full Planning Commission.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh said the sanitation scheme would cover all needy people since 60 per cent of the population was defecating in the open. This practice was derogatory to the dignity of women and posed a danger to their security. He maintained that India would be freed of the practice within 10 years.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The structural changes were proposed to carry forward the drinking water and sanitation campaign in the 12th Five-Year Plan which would see a significant increase in the outlay.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Increase in outlay&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The current outlay of about Rs.11,000 crore was likely to be increased by about 40 to 60 per cent, Mr. Ramesh said, adding that more funds would be allocated for sanitation purposes.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The help of women self-help groups (SHGs) and civil society groups and banks would be engaged in a major way to provide toilets. People were willing to take loans to meet part of the cost for construction of toilets.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Toilet cost structure&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Hence, the cost structure would include a part of government subsidy, individual&#039;s contribution and bank loan. Providing loan for sanitation purpose would be brought under the category of priority lending.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Terming the present cost of Rs.3,000 permitted under the TSC as &amp;ldquo;ridiculous,&amp;rdquo; Mr. Ramesh said the proposal was to increase it to reasonable levels of Rs.7,000 to Rs.10,000 per unit.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The objective is not only to scale down the targets but ensure full coverage and that would be done by shifting the focus from individual households to gram panchayats. There are only 25,000 nirmal gram panchayats so far out of the 2.5-lakh panchayats in the country.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh also held a meeting with all the NGOs attached with the sanitation campaign to seek their extended partnership in achieving the national goal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Stressing that Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee had accepted his proposal, Mr. Ramesh said it was time the focus of spending was on social sectors which private players avoided rather than give bailout packages for commercial entities such as airliners and railways which were supposed to run their operations in a professional manner.
&lt;/div&gt;

Mr. Ramesh said the sanitation scheme would cover all needy people since 60 per cent of the population was defecating in the open. This practice was derogatory to the dignity of women and posed a danger to their security. He maintained that India would be freed of the practice within 10 years.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The structural changes were proposed to carry forward the drinking water and sanitation campaign in the 12th Five-Year Plan which would see a significant increase in the outlay.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Increase in outlay&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The current outlay of about Rs.11,000 crore was likely to be increased by about 40 to 60 per cent, Mr. Ramesh said, adding that more funds would be allocated for sanitation purposes.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The help of women self-help groups (SHGs) and civil society groups and banks would be engaged in a major way to provide toilets. People were willing to take loans to meet part of the cost for construction of toilets.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Toilet cost structure&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Hence, the cost structure would include a part of government subsidy, individual&#039;s contribution and bank loan. Providing loan for sanitation purpose would be brought under the category of priority lending.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Terming the present cost of Rs.3,000 permitted under the TSC as &amp;ldquo;ridiculous,&amp;rdquo; Mr. Ramesh said the proposal was to increase it to reasonable levels of Rs.7,000 to Rs.10,000 per unit.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The objective is not only to scale down the targets but ensure full coverage and that would be done by shifting the focus from individual households to gram panchayats. There are only 25,000 nirmal gram panchayats so far out of the 2.5-lakh panchayats in the country.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Mr. Ramesh also held a meeting with all the NGOs attached with the sanitation campaign to seek their extended partnership in achieving the national goal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Stressing that Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee had accepted his proposal, Mr. Ramesh said it was time the focus of spending was on social sectors which private players avoided rather than give bailout packages for commercial entities such as airliners and railways which were supposed to run their operations in a professional manner.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

The Centre plans to remove the distinction between below poverty line (BPL) and above poverty line (APL) and bring all the needy under the Total Sanitation Scheme (TSC). It would be renamed as Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan to send home the message that its implementation would be a people's movement rather than a bureaucratic programme.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">

<div style="text-align: justify">
The new scheme will be part of the structural changes to be introduced from April. Union Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh, who also holds the portfolio of Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation, on Tuesday made a presentation on the changes proposed before the full Planning Commission.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
Mr. Ramesh said the sanitation scheme would cover all needy people since 60 per cent of the population was defecating in the open. This practice was derogatory to the dignity of women and posed a danger to their security. He maintained that India would be freed of the practice within 10 years.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">

The structural changes were proposed to carry forward the drinking water and sanitation campaign in the 12th Five-Year Plan which would see a significant increase in the outlay.
