Introduction
Swachh Bharat Abhiyan is started by the government to make India a completely cl
ean India. Clean India was a dream seen by the Mahatma Gandhi regarding which he
said that, Sanitation is more important than Independence . During his time he was
well aware of the poor and dirty condition of the country that s why he made vari
ous efforts to complete his dream however could not be successful. As he dreamt
of clean India a day, he said that both cleanliness and sanitation are integral
parts of healthy and peaceful living. Unfortunately, India became lack of cleanl
iness and sanitation even after 67 years of independence. According to the stati
stics, it has seen that only few percentage of total population have access to t
he toilets. It is a programme run by the government to seriously work to fulfill
