(a) & (b): To accelerate the pace of rural sanitation coverage in India, a centrally sponsored
programme, namely Central Rural Sanitation Programme (CRSP), was introduced in 1986.
CRSP was restructured in 1999 as Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC), with focus on demand
generation through effective information, education and communication campaign. It is being
implemented in rural areas taking district as a unit of implementation. Till date, 582 projects
for rural districts have been approved under TSC, with a project cycle of 4-5 years each. No
annual targets are set under this programme. TSC aims to provide access to toilets to all
households in rural areas by 2012. With the implementation of TSC, total percentage of
households with latrine in rural area has increased to about 50% by the end of February 2008.
(c) & (d): The Central outlay for the programme for 2006-07 was Rs. 800 crore, which was
increased to Rs. 1060 crore in 2007-08. The Central outlay proposed for 2008-09 is Rs. 1200
crore. State-wise allocations are not made under TSC. The State-wise details of projects
approved are annexed.
