NIRMAL BHARAT ABHIYAN

1. Introduction:
To accelerate the progress of sanitation in rural areas, Government of India is implementing from 1.4.2012, the ‘Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan
(NBA)’, a Centrally Sponsored Scheme [earlier Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC)]. Similarly, to provide drinking water to rural population in adequate quantity, the Govt. of India is implementing a centrally sponsored Scheme called the National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP).
New Delhi:
The union cabinet Wednesday gave its approval for restructuring of “Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan"” into "Swachh Bharat Mission". The programme is aimed at creating a clean India by 2019 with people's participation.
"The cabinet has approved the Swachh Bharat Mission," union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said here after a cabinet meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Prasad said the mission will be launched Oct 2, the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.

The prime minister has been striving to make the mission a mass movement.
The cabinet also approved a "Swachh Bharat Mission" for urban areas, which will be part of a joint "Swachh Bharat Mission" which has another component for rural areas. The drinking water and sanitation ministry will implement the programme in rural areas while the urban development ministry will do the same in urban areas.
"The 'Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan' will be restructured into the 'Swachh Bharat Mission' with two sub-missions - 'Swachh Bharat Mission' (rural) and 'Swachh Bharat Mission' (urban). Budgetary provisions for the two sub-missions will be provided separately in the demand for grant of the ministries of drinking water and sanitation (for rural) and ministry of urban development (for urban)," an official statement said.

“I take this pledge that I will remain committed towards cleanliness and devote time for this. I will devote 100 hours per year — that is two hours per week — to voluntary work for cleanliness. I will neither litter nor let others

    Temporary Aid To Tough Families Essay

    The current welfare program: Temporary Aid to Needy Families, requires custodial parents applying for benefits to help the government to establish the obligations of paying child support against the parents that are absent, to eventually sue them, and to simultaneously give the government the right to collect those funds from the non-custodial parent, following the regulations. This system of welfare cost recovery is a side of child support that is largely unknown to the public (Ronald B. Mincy). People can easily see that when a trucker’s license is suspended, he cannot work; when a laborer’s wages are garnished at sixty-five percent, he cannot afford to pay his own rent. In a further development, Ronald states that fathers could obtain a new job and then lose it after being incarcerated for contempt because of his child support arrearages, and the relationships between the mothers and fathers, fragile at their beginnings, can be obliterated through the process. As clear as the child support issues could be, the hopes of children to have fathers who are supportive and involved in their lives are often dissolved. A real and deep work needs to be done so that the system stop harming children, fathers, mothers, as well as the government.…

    Argumentative Essay: Gun Violence In The United States

    Gun violence is one main thing that tears families apart. Crazy, non-educated people roam the streets with dangerous weapons killing people and causing tragedies. Society would have done better if only police had the access to weapons and guns instead of civilians and criminals, although they could be confiscated. Gun violence incidents have been happening for a very long time, most of the time without a reason. Shootings, robberies, etc. all include the use of a weapon like a gun. These things happen every day. For example, if someone is trying/planning on killing someone, they won’t be able to do that without a weapon. Guns are meant for self-defense, people like gangsters don’t use them the way they’re supposed to be used, but why? Using them not the right way will get them in trouble and do nothing but get them thrown in jail, just use guns in the proper form, for self-defense, not homicidal kills. It is important to always stay cautious of your…

    India Water Pollution

    Studies found that sewage waste is the main cause of water pollution in India. The problem is caused by the poor treatment of dumping sewage and the failure to maintain sewage treatment plants. The Central Pollution Control Board, a company that monitors environmental issues in India, has created the National Water Quality Monitoring Network, which monitors the quality of waters all year. The network monitors waters all over India. Samples of water are taken frequently and checked for bacteria and other harmful substances within the water. Other ways of sewage treatment include air flotation, dual media filter, activated carbon filter, sand filtration and sludge drying beds. These methods all take place in sewage treatment plants. Water treatment plants are very expensive and are needed to be maintained constantly. Removal of sludge is said to be the most untreated area of water treatment. This is because of the poor design and poor maintenance of the sludge treatments. India has set policies to control sewage pollution in water. the Ministry of Environment and Forests has created financial and technical support systems to promote the proper treatment of water. The problem with India’s water treatment is that the government is not putting enough effort into making the water usable for its citizens. The government should promote the health hazards and future issues of water pollution so the citizens can learn to treat their water better. Informing citizens is also a way of treatment because people will be aware of the issues water pollution will cause for them and therefore they will take action.…

    Willy Loman and Gatsby Comparison

    The protagonists of the novel (Willy Loman and Jay Gatsby), both prove to show an assortment of similar character attributes. Beginning with their insane dedication of their lives to the American dream, the characters retain many similarities. Although their ideals slightly vary, the dedication towards achieving it remains very similar. Gatsby hosts parties in an attempt to fit in, but his attempt is inevitably a failure as buying in to a society that does not accept him can never conclude with success. His main idea was to obtain the “girl of his dreams” alongside this, but ended with neither as he took a ferocious ride to his own self-destruction. Willy, in contrast, was able to accomplish the envious American Dream, but was far too ambitious to notice. When Willy decides he wants to search for his father with his brother Ben, he met Dave Singleman who essentially changes his entire future. In order to make a sale all he had to do was "pick up his phone and call the buyers, and without ever leaving his room, he made his living..." (Miller, p81). After seeing how successful he was, Willy totally reconsiders his original decision of going to Alaska, and instead, became a salesman which marks the beginning of his downfall. Both characters prove to be very lacking in moral sense. Jay Gatsby’s only motivation for becoming rich was to win Daisy back. Gatsby threw exuberant parties and lies about his background just to prove his worthiness to Daisy. “There was music from my neighbor's house through the summer nights. In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and he champagne and the stars…” (Fitzgerald, p26). In Willy’s case, after arriving home from “work”, he boasts about his sales, despite it being blatant lies just to impress his family. "If old man Wagner was still alive I'd a been in charge of New York now." (Miller, p3). This quote truly shows how far Willy has fallen, as it could not be further from the truth. The biggest…
