A Step Towards The Prosperity of Our Nation!
Sanitation and cleanliness were not one of the strongest fortes of our nation. In all the Hollywood movies and other forms of art, India was always depicted as a country with hygiene and filth. This was true to a large extent, however, not entirely true. But, the entire scene was changed with the inception of Swacch Bharat Abhiyan. Right from the beginning of this movement along with various rural development programs in India, the nation’s hygiene took a huge leap. Here are the few things that changed over the years.
Open defecation free rural regions
Open defecation brings a lot of diseases on an environmental and personal level. The rural areas of India were especially affected by this social evil and rural development programs in India brought awareness and a stop to it.
Importance of personal hygiene
Personal hygiene is one of tPunkhe core change of lifestyle that needs more awareness. Lack of it will bring only diseases and lifestyle conditions. This is an awareness that requires special attention to rural areas.
Cleanliness in public spaces
Clean surroundings increase the chances of the betterment of the environment along with the improvements on a personal level. Public spaces which are clean is a delight to the vision, and thus it should be kept that way.
Lesser diseases and deaths
Rural development programs in India have brought a change in the lifestyles of the rural areas in India by eliminating many lifestyle diseases and decreased the mortality rate which happened due to open defecation.
With the beginning of rural development programs in India by Indian Sanitation Coalition, the change of behaviour and attitude is observed to be on a positive note. People have realised what it takes to be called as citizens of a nation that is hygienic and clean. The idea of a clean and green India is now every citizen’s dream, and some people are acting out of these beliefs. It is a great joy to see these changes in attitude, and we hope it continues to develop our country in the right direction.
