CITY SANITATION PLAN - Ministry of Urban Development

6.3.6 LINKAGE WITH STATE SANITATION STRATEGY
The State Sanitation Strategy like the National Urban Sanitation Policy envisages the vision it has laid
out at the national level of making all the cities highly sanitized and livable. Sanitation being a state
subject has to be dealt with utmost care in implementing. The piecemeal approach to sanitation has

of the cities by duly acknowledging the financial constraints a ULB goes through. The state strategy
urges the urban local bodies to make public aware of the financial constraints it goes through and
help in providing basic necessities in a appropriate way by making provision for payment of the taxes
on time. On the other hand it should encourage and facilitate the cities to take up numerous IEC
activities in the city through audio visuals and video documentaries to bring awareness among the
general public in achieving sanitized city status.
