It  has  conducted  three rounds  of  National  Annual  Rural  Sanitation  Survey  (NARSS)  from  2017-18  to  2019-20 through an independent verification agency. Each round of NARSS covered 92,040 households in  6136  villages  across  States  and  UTs  of  India.    DDWS  has  also  conducted  two  rounds  of Swachh Survekshan Grameen (SSG) in 2018 and 2019 to rank States and districts  based on their performance on key quantitative and qualitative sanitation parameters.  As per the results of NARSS 2019-20, State/UT-wise details of percentage of population who were having access to toilet, percentage of villages which were sustaining ODF status and percentage of population having  some  arrangements  for  solid  and  liquid  waste  management  (SLWM),  are  given  at Annexure-1.
