RURAL DEVELOPMENT<br />

Clean Villages<br />

111. It is the desire of our Hon'ble Chief Minister that<br />

all the villages in the State should be clean and tidy. This<br />

requires the establishment of a sustainable solid waste<br />

management system in all our villages. Our Hon'ble<br />

Chief Minister had started the 'Clean Village Campaign' during<br />

2003. Regrettably, this scheme was not followed up by the<br />

previous Government. This Government has now relaunched<br />

the 'Clean Village Campaign' from 2011-2012. All the<br />

villages will put up a proper solid waste management<br />

system with recycling and waste disposal facilities. The<br />

villages adjoining the urban areas can be part of the<br />

solid waste management projects implemented in the<br />

urban areas. A sum of Rs.150 crores will be earmarked<br />

within the devolution for putting up such facilities,<br />

including the cost of manpower for collecting and<br />

handling waste. Rs.97.85 crores, available under the Nirmal<br />

Bharat Abhiyan, will also be used for the purpose of solid<br />

waste and waste water management during <strong>2013</strong>-20<strong>14</strong>.
