CITY SANITATION PLAN - Ministry of Urban Development

CITY SANITATION PLAN BAREILLY
about 3500 – 5000 (in Rs) per annum. But, the amount that is being allocated is not separately for
school toilets maintenance. It is the overall school maintenance budget allocation for the entire year,
which is hardly sufficient for any kind of developments or improvements of toilet facilities in these
schools.
Based on the above mentioned budget allocation and responsible agents for O&M, there are about
85% of the schools who made few improvements to the toilets during the last 3 years. And the
improvements are only related to minimal – such as fixing up the doors, fixing up the water
connection, painting of walls and doors, flooring, and cleaning at regular intervals. Thus, this also
show that majority of schools with toilets have further improvements to avoid further damage. In
addition to toilet cleaning status, it is also important to consider the cleaning activities for the water
storage facilities and the school premises. The analysis shows that about 58% of the schools have
their cleaning activities done for storage facilities for every 6 months and about 32% of them
annually. There are about 10% of schools who do not have any kind of cleaning activities in schools
and its infrastructure.
In addition to this, solid waste disposal is also important to consider. The waste generated at school
premises can be disposed and it is being categorized into road side bins, open site disposals, into
drains and door to door collection. The analysis shows that about 64% of the schools dispose their
waste into road side bins; and about 13% on open sites and the rest through regular door to door
collection. Thus, it can be concluded that the solid waste disposal mechanism at schools is safe. In
addition to this, the all the schools in Bareilly has a curriculum which provides basic sanitary and
hygiene education to the students which reflects upon proper usage and maintenance of the toilets
at schools by students.
Key Issues:
1. About 40% of the schools do not have any workers to maintain the cleanliness of the
surroundings of the school
2. About 47% of the schools whose toilets are not in any working conditions.
3. About 30% of the school’s cleanliness is done by students themselves
