Sanitation and Social Development: A Socio-Cultural Study of Indian Society

Author(s) SHEELAVATHI
Country India
Abstract Sanitation and Development are closely related to one another. Just like food and drinking water, Sanitation is a basic need. The degree of cleanliness, health and hygiene is a key indicator of its level of development. Any society, where people live in filth and weak at the level of health, cannot be said to be developed. Poor sanitation reduces human well-being, social and economic development due to the impacts such as anxiety, risk of sexual assault, and lost opportunities for education and work. In order to promote hygiene, sanitation and social development, many schemes have been implemented by the Government of India. The socio-cultural practices of people towards cleanliness are very low in some of the backward, Rural and slum communities of Indian society. The present study shall explore the Sanitation situation in Indian society in recent years and the performance of Swachh Bharat Mission in the provision of Sanitation in India. It also highlights the various components of Manual Scavenging and cleanliness through the study of socio-cultural habits of Indian society which retards social development. The present study uses Secondary data related to Sanitation. The Sanitation situation in Indian society and changes in the recent years were analyzed using data from the reports published by Census of India, National Annual Rural Sanitation Survey 2019-20 and report published in the sbm.gov.in website.
