National Urban Sanitation Policy

The National Urban Sanitation Policy was launched in 2008 by the Ministry of Urban Development of India, emphasing the need of defining integrated city-wide sanitation plans including institutional strengthening, awareness generation, behavioural changes, pro-poor approaches and cost effective technologies aiming at developing state sanitation strategies and city sanitation plans, that should lead to open defecation free cities, as well as sanitary and safe disposal of all human and liquid wastes.
