Urban Sanitation Situation in India
About 50 million people in urban Indiaresort to open defecation.
As high as 82 percent of urbanhouseholds maybe disposing of human wastes in an unsafe manner
70 percent wastewater from seweragesystems not treated and let outunsafely.
26 percent do not have any householdsanitation arrangements
80 percent of surface water pollutionis due to municipal sewage alone

Are the Urban poor covered ???
Reside in informal/ low quality settlements; Lack of awareness.
Not enough public toilets: Highly skewed ratios of persons/ seats
Public toilets poorly maintained; Many are forced to defecate in the open
Lack of tenant rights and tenure in slum communities; Therefore cannot invest in propersanitary facilities even if motivated
Mindset and Social Biases: Poor status of scavenging workers, and slow progress ineradicating service latrines (more than 0.75 m workers and more than 3 m servicelatrines remain)

Despite InvestmentUnsatisfactory Results
y Before: Focus only on creating large infrastructure andsewerage projects
y Only 300 of 5161 urban areas in the country have partial(20-50%) sewer network.
y Low household connections to sewer networks; thereforeinsufficient flows to plant; Underutilized capacity
y Only 21% of wastewater generated is treated.y No attention to operation and maintenance; Plants and
system fall into disrepair over time
8/3/2019 National Urban Sanitation Policy 2.8.10

Institutional Issuesin Urban Sanitation
Urban sanitation in India beset with fragmented institutional responsibilities
Multiple institutions responsible for different activities, with lowcoordination between them
ULBs do not often have primary responsibilities
Major investments often undertaken by parastatals
Regulation often poor especially of household onsite sanitation
Emphasis often on creation of infrastructure with low priority for O&M
No Accountability thus no responsibility
In the end, OUTCOMES are not monitored . Citizens suffer

Awareness generation andbehavior change
y Generating awareness amongst households and institutions aboutsanitation and its linkages with public and environmental health;
y
Promoting mechanisms to bring about and sustain behavioralchanges aimed at adoption of healthy sanitation practices;

Open Defecation Free Cities
This will be accomplished by:
y Promoting access to households with safe sanitation facilities(including proper disposal arrangements);
y Promoting community-planned and managed toilets wherevernecessary, for groups of households who have issues of space,tenure or economic constraints in gaining access to individualfacilities;
y
Adequate availability and 100 % upkeep and management of PublicSanitation facilities in all urban areas.
8/3/2019 National Urban Sanitation Policy 2.8.10
10/22
Sanitary and safe disposal
100 % of human excreta and liquid wastes from all sanitation facilitiesmust be disposed-off safely.
This will be achieved by:y
Ensuring that all human wastes are collected, treated and disposed off safely;
y Promoting proper disposal and treatment of sludge from on-siteinstallations (septic tanks, pit latrines, etc.);
y Promoting proper functioning of network-based sewerage systemsand ensuring connections of households to them;
y Encourage recycle and reuse of treated waste water for non-potableapplications, wherever possible.

Operation and maintenance andcapacity building
y Promoting proper usage, regular upkeep and maintenance of household, community and public sanitation facilities;
y
Strengthening urban local bodies to provide sustainable sanitationservice delivery;
y GoI will support states with capacity building and training whereverthere is a need and demand.
8/3/2019 National Urban Sanitation Policy 2.8.10

Developing State Strategies andCity Sanitation Plans
y Sanitation is a state subject and requires strong city level institutionsand stakeholders.
y Each state and city MUST formulate state sanitation strategies and city
sanitation plans.
y Each state can institute a state rewards scheme, in order to mobilizecities and promote healthy competition.
y 100 cities formulating city sanitation plans;many supported by bi/multi-lateral agencies (donor alignment ) -being guided by GoI

Changed perspective:Outcome Focused
The emphasis will not be on the physical infrastructure per sebut on:
y Behavior change outcomes
y Proper usage
y Institutional reorientation
y Regular upkeep and maintenance
y Increased Accountability: Service delivery by ULBs and theirdelegated agents;
