## (SHRI RAMESH CHANDAPPA JIGAJINAGI)

- (a)  The Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin) (SBM (G)) was launched on 2nd October, 2014 with the aim to attain Swachh Bharat by 2 nd October 2019. The focus of the scheme is on behavior change and usage of toilets. Since Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin) is a demand driven scheme, hence District-wise targets are not fixed. However, District-wise, number of Individual household latrines (IHHLs) constructed during last 3 years and current year under SBM(G) as per the information on the online  Integrated Management  Information System (IMIS) of SBM(G) is at Annexure-1
- (b) For the current financial year, an amount of Rs. 829.83 crores has been released to Bihar as Central share under Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin).
