Clean India Green India

The Ministry of Jal Shakti announced the Clean India Green India or Swachh Bharat Abhiyan to speed up efforts to attain universal sanitation coverage and to focus on sanitation. It is one of the biggest initiatives ever undertaken in India’s history and realises Mahatma Gandhi’s aspirations for a healthy and disease-free India. It was launched on October 2, 2014. Here is some data related to the mission:

  1. Aim: To clean up the streets, roads and infrastructure of India’s cities, smaller towns and rural areas.
  2. Budget: The total budget allocated for the “Clean India” mission was approximately Rs. 62,000 crore (approx. US$9 billion) for a period of five years (2014-2019).
  3. Impact: As of 2019, over 11 crore toilets have been constructed under the mission, leading to an increase in sanitation coverage from 39% to 98%.
  4. Swachh Bharat Abhiyan: The “Clean India” mission is also known as the “Swachh Bharat Abhiyan” which means “Clean India Campaign”.
  5. Participating Institutions: The initiative involved the participation of various government departments, private organizations, and individuals across the country.

Note: Data might have changed after the 2021 knowledge cut-off.

The goal of the mission was to end open defecation in rural areas through the implementation of a national campaign/Janandolan.

After completing the first phase of Clean India Green India, the government began the second phase in 2021 with the intention of achieving additional objectives by 2023–2024.

Objectives of Clean India Green India

The programme covers the eradication of manual scavenging, the conversion of unhygienic toilets to pour flush toilets, the eradication of open defecation, municipal solid waste management, and changing people’s attitudes toward good sanitation practices.

In residential locations where it is challenging to build individual household toilets, community restrooms will be constructed as part of the initiative.

The nation’s residents are being reminded by the Clean India Mission to respect nature and not deface its beauty. Additionally, maintaining a clean and green environment is the exclusive responsibility of each and every individual. Together, we can effect change; apart, we can only think. In the end, it is the combined effort that matters. The mission needs to be a joint effort between the people and its government.

The two parts of the Clean India Green India mission are handled by two distinct departments. The country’s urban areas are under the watchful eye of the Ministry of Home and Urban Affairs. The initiative is referred to as Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban. Sanitation coverage in rural areas is under the direction of the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation. The initiative is referred to as Swachh Bharat Mission-Gramin.

The Main objectives of “Clean India Green India” are:

  1. To create a clean and hygienic environment
  2. To reduce environmental pollution
  3. To promote sustainable waste management practices
  4. To increase the green cover in urban and rural areas
  5. To create awareness about the importance of cleanliness and environmental protection
  6. To improve the overall quality of life for citizens.

Clean India Green India Mission- Urban for future

The first phase of the initiative, which was introduced in 2014, concentrated on eliminating open defecation, converting unhygienic toilets to flush toilets, eliminating manual scavenging, managing municipal solid waste, and changing people’s attitudes toward good sanitation practices.

The project was updated with SBM-U 2.0, which aims to achieve safe sanitation in urban areas by making all cities “Garbage Free,” ensuring grey and black water management in all cities besides those covered by AMRUT, and making all urban local bodies as Open Defection Free+ and those with a population of less than 1 lakh as Open Defection Free++. The Mission will focus on source segregation of solid waste, sustainable sanitation, wastewater treatment, capacity building, Information, Education and Communication utilizing the principles of the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle), scientific processing of all types of municipal solid waste and remediation of legacy dumpsites for effective solid waste management for the period 2021-22 to 2025-26.

Clean India  Mission (Gramin)- U 2.0

Clean India Green India

Alongside the urban goal, the Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin) was introduced to ensure cleanliness in rural India to achieve Open Defecation Free (ODF) status there in five years. Through solid and liquid waste management initiatives and efforts to make Gram Panchayats Open Defecation Free (ODF), clean, and sanitised, it aims to raise the standard of cleanliness in rural regions.

The work on sanitation and the behaviour change campaign must continue to sustain the gains made under the programme, as well as to ensure that no one is left behind and the general cleanliness (Sampoorn Swachhata) in villages. In its first phase, the initiative reached the milestone of Open Defecation Free India in a time-bound manner in the last five years from 2014 to 2019.

The second phase was implemented in 2020 with a focus on the sustainability of open defecation status and solid and liquid waste management. (SLWM). It is the goal of SBM(G) Phase-II to serve as a groundbreaking illustration of convergence between various funding verticals and Central and State Government programmes. From 2020–21 through 2024–25, the programme will be run in mission mode.

Clean India initiative in Schools

Under the Swachh Bharat Mission, the Ministry of Human Resource Development has started the Swachh Vidyalaya Program with the goal of installing separate restrooms for boys and females in all public schools within a year. Every school in the nation is required to have a set of fundamental interventions related to both technical and human development aspects of a good water, sanitation, and hygiene programme, according to the program’s objectives. Under the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) and Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan, the Ministry provides financial help to States and Union Territories, among other things, to build bathrooms in schools for both boys and girls (RMSA).

The “Clean India” initiative in schools aims to:

  1. Incorporate cleanliness and hygiene as part of the curriculum.
  2. Promote the habit of keeping the school premises and surroundings clean.
  3. Encourage students to become agents of change in their communities.
  4. Encourage waste segregation and composting.
  5. Promote the use of eco-friendly products and practices.
  6. Create awareness about the importance of cleanliness and environmental protection.
  7. Provide clean toilets and handwashing facilities in schools.
  8. Conduct cleanliness drives and other activities to engage students.

Clean India Fund

The goal of Clean India (Swachh Bharat) is to accomplish by the year 2024, and the Clean India Fund, or Swachh Bharat Kosh (SBK), has been established to facilitate and channel corporate social responsibility (CSR) funding and individual philanthropic contributions. The Kosh will be utilised to accomplish the goal of raising the standard of cleanliness in both urban and rural regions, including schools. To supplement and complete departmental resources for such efforts, the Kosh allotment would be utilised. Modalities to offer tax refunds where they are possible are being studied as a way to encourage contributions from both people and corporations.

Clean India Portal

Swachh Bharat, the clean India portal, was established to promote and support people in engaging in activities related to cleanliness. SwachhApp, an app that tracks the expansion of sanitation coverage in rural regions, was also introduced by the Department of Drinking Water and Sanitation. Anyone can view the number of toilets built in a specific location with the use of this app. As an incentive, Rs. 12,000 was given to eligible rural recipients who were building private household toilets on their own. This amount also covered the provisions for water storage.

Conclusion

According to Mahatma Gandhi, sanitation is more crucial than independence. If we reflect on the scenario in 2014, a project like Swachh Bharat Abhiyan was urgently needed. It was becoming increasingly important to keep the environment clean, sanitary, and hygienic. Due to poor hygiene and malnutrition, young children were more likely to contract diseases like diarrhoea, cholera, etc. As a result, 1000 kids every day pass away from diarrheal diseases. According to a UN report, about 60% of Indians practise open defecation and are predisposed to bad health and fatal diseases.

Cleaning our lifestyle and eradicating contaminants from our surroundings are both aspects of cleanliness. Greenness and cleanliness are essential to the prosperity of every nation. Any country can draw tourists from other nations to come and experience the natural beauty and cleanliness there. Increasing tourism, not only boosts the nation’s pride but also helps it financially. The government has started initiatives to promote cleanliness and the environment. However, it is now our duty to adhere to the appropriate procedures in our lives and support the sustainable development of our nation.

Computer hardware, software, telecommunications, and essentially anything involved in the transmission of information or the systems that facilitate communication are all included in the field of information technology (IT).

Additionally, a lot of IT positions provide excellent job stability, high pay, and benefits that improve work-life balance. You’ve certainly heard that working in IT is a good idea, but how is it in practice? Here are some things that not most of the people know about the IT industry and what it takes to be a part of it :

There are many ways to get into IT. Some IT professionals have a computer science degree, but some have an arts degree or a commerce degree and gained experience through hard work that led to an IT role.

In fact, less than half of IT support workers (43 percent) doesn’t have a bachelor’s degree at all. They acquired the skills they need to perform their duties at work without jumping through the usual 4-year-long degree program. If you don’t have a CS degree, that doesn’t mean that you can’t be a part of the IT industry. There are various other alternatives.

To Succeed in IT, You Don’t Have to Be a Math Mastermind

It’s a myth that you must have exceptional arithmetic abilities in order to work in IT, just as it’s a myth that you need a degree in computer science. Don’t give up if calculus wasn’t your best subject in high school or college. The majority of employment in technology won’t require it. In reality, all you typically need to get started studying the abilities you require for the majority of IT careers are some basic math skills.

Depending on your function, you can learn a lot of what you require for your IT work through hands-on experience, training classes, and playing about on your own computer. If you’re prepared to put in the effort, you can step your foot in the IT industry.

Age doesn’t matter, not even in IT!

You might believe that all IT professionals are young if your understanding of IT careers is limited to startups, social media, and mobile apps. Not the real scenario, though. The age of the core IT workforce was 42 years old on average in 2016.

You can begin a career in IT at any age, and you may already have acquired skills from prior employment that make you a desirable applicant for an IT position. Keep in mind that recruiting managers value soft talents and transferable skills. You may begin an IT job at any age if you have the motivation and ambition to improve your technical skills. Your willingness to work is what matters most.

Your interpersonal abilities will set you apart in the IT industry!

As already noted, having specific soft skills might provide you a significant advantage in the IT industry. In many IT professions, interpersonal skills are possibly the most crucial ones to possess.

Working at a help desk will require you to interact with and assist your coworkers on a regular basis. It’s essential to be able to carry on a discussion and establish a rapport.

Similar to this, developing new websites, apps, and products will probably require you to collaborate with designers and other developers in teams. The key to your success will be your capacity to collaborate with others.

Technical & soft skills, the key points of this industry

Whatever their position, IT workers need to have a strong combination of hard and soft abilities. In fact, soft skills make up four of the top five qualifications included in core IT job advertisements. The soft skills you already possess may be what makes you stand out to hiring managers and your supervisors once you’re recruited because technical skills alone aren’t enough to succeed in an IT position.

Good communication, problem-solving skills, project management, and yes, customer service, are necessary for many IT occupations. You really did pave the way for success in IT with your jobs in retail, food service, or call centers! These abilities enable you to collaborate more effectively, handle obstacles in the workplace, and finish projects on schedule and within budget.

IT professionals are not geniuses, knowing all the answers

It would be hard to have all the solutions and foresee all the difficulties given how frequently and swiftly technology develops. Even if the IT team at your company might appear to have all the answers, this does not indicate that they do.

An excellent IT professional is creative. If they are stumped, they consult manuals and guidebooks, phone vendors, ask coworkers and other IT professionals, search the internet, and seek for help. They go above and beyond to locate a response and a fix.

A resourceful IT expert is just as useful as one who knows everything if not more so! Furthermore, a big component of every IT career is problem-solving. To succeed in IT, you may as well love solving problems. Few, if any, IT professionals have all the necessary skills to solve every issue. The people who persevere until they have solutions are the ones that Excel.

The potential in the broad, ever-evolving sector of IT are virtually limitless. Depending on your individual abilities and interests, there is probably a tech career out there for you, whether you are interested in coding, infrastructure, analysis, or something else. If you’re considering a career change, this is a wonderful time to start looking into your alternatives! Jump right into your research and step your foot into the ever-growing IT industry.
