Toilet Coverage and Sanitation Performance in India By States (2001-2011)
It is widely accepted that India’s “Total Sanitation Campaign has been a failure”.
In 2001 rural sanitation coverage was 22%. In 2011, ten years of Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) later, the Government of India claimed that coverage was 68%. But recent Census data revealed that real coverage was only 31%. This means that less than one in five toilets reportedly constructed is in place.
