Swachh Bharat: Launched on October 2, 2014, the Swachh Bharat Mission placed sanitation at the centre of the government's public campaign. Its first phase focused heavily on toilet construction and eliminating open defecation. Government data says more than 10 crore individual household toilets were constructed under the rural component of the mission, while villages across the country declared themselves open defecation free by October 2019. The programme subsequently moved beyond toilet construction towards sustaining ODF status and improving solid and liquid waste management. As of June 2026, the government reported more than 12.14 crore household toilets and 5.69 lakh villages declared ODF Plus.
