&lt;em&gt;Four years after the Prime Minister announced the Swachch Bharat Abhiyan with much fanfare, it is apparent that we cannot clean up the rotting trash that has become so common on our streets&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Four years after the Prime Minister announced the Swachch Bharat Abhiyan with much fanfare, it is apparent that we cannot clean up the rotting trash that has become so common on our streets all over the country? Men can be seen all over the country peeing on walls or into the air. It is almost impossible to find any pavements in our towns and cities, and when there are some, they are strewn with trash and wet with urine. Simple logic tells us we need a lot more trash bins and public toilets. But that is the easier part. Keeping them clean and usable is the more difficult part. Clearly we are failing. We have a system of high cost government with low returns. We need a newer and better way of managing cleanliness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Visiting the Banaras Hindu University on February 4, 1916, Mahatma Gandhi in his address said: &amp;ldquo;I visited the Vishvanath temple last evening. If a stranger dropped from above on to this great temple, would he not be justified in condemning us? Is it right that the lanes of our sacred temples should be as dirty as they are? If even our temples are not models of cleanliness, what can our self- government be? We do not know elementary laws of cleanliness. We spit everywhere. The result is indescribable filth.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the ninety-eight years since then things have only worsened. We not only spit everywhere, we piss everywhere, we shit wherever and dump our garbage anywhere. India is easily the most dirty, unhygienic and filthy country in the world. Picking up from here, our Prime Minister had rightly launched the Swachh Bharat campaign to clean up India. He has announced an ambitious campaign to build home toilets for 12 million urban households, 25 million public toilets, and 3o million community toilets. In all over 300 million will be helped with &amp;ldquo;solid waste management practices&amp;rdquo; and this is to be achieved by 2019 and will cost the nation Rs.62009 crores. This is not a sum that we cannot afford. Will India become a cleaner, healthier and more hygienic nation, less offensive to sight and smell?&amp;nbsp; I didn&amp;rsquo;t think so then and now it is apparent that the Swachh Bharat campaign has so far been more of a failure than a success.&lt;br /&gt;

Men can be seen all over the country peeing on walls or into the air. It is almost impossible to find any pavements in our towns and cities, and when there are some, they are strewn with trash and wet with urine. Simple logic tells us we need a lot more trash bins and public toilets. But that is the easier part. Keeping them clean and usable is the more difficult part. Clearly we are failing. We have a system of high cost government with low returns. We need a newer and better way of managing cleanliness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Visiting the Banaras Hindu University on February 4, 1916, Mahatma Gandhi in his address said: &amp;ldquo;I visited the Vishvanath temple last evening. If a stranger dropped from above on to this great temple, would he not be justified in condemning us? Is it right that the lanes of our sacred temples should be as dirty as they are? If even our temples are not models of cleanliness, what can our self- government be? We do not know elementary laws of cleanliness. We spit everywhere. The result is indescribable filth.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the ninety-eight years since then things have only worsened. We not only spit everywhere, we piss everywhere, we shit wherever and dump our garbage anywhere. India is easily the most dirty, unhygienic and filthy country in the world. Picking up from here, our Prime Minister had rightly launched the Swachh Bharat campaign to clean up India. He has announced an ambitious campaign to build home toilets for 12 million urban households, 25 million public toilets, and 3o million community toilets. In all over 300 million will be helped with &amp;ldquo;solid waste management practices&amp;rdquo; and this is to be achieved by 2019 and will cost the nation Rs.62009 crores. This is not a sum that we cannot afford. Will India become a cleaner, healthier and more hygienic nation, less offensive to sight and smell?&amp;nbsp; I didn&amp;rsquo;t think so then and now it is apparent that the Swachh Bharat campaign has so far been more of a failure than a success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nationalheraldindia.com/opinion/the-failure-of-swachch-bharat-abhiyan-we-need-a-better-way-to-manage-trash&quot; title=&quot;https://www.nationalheraldindia.com/opinion/the-failure-of-swachch-bharat-abhiyan-we-need-a-better-way-to-manage-trash&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;
