Historic! After thousands of years, manual scavenging to end in India; govt to introduce automated cleaning

[Samara]

The Centre has decided to amend the Prohibition of Employment of Manual Scavengers and their Rehabilitation Act for making mechanised cleaning of septic tanks and sewer lines compulsory.

 

 

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

• The Centre announced the decision on the occasion of World Toilet Day on Thursday.

• The Ministry of Urban Affair will grant funds to civic workers for buying cleaning machines, Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said.

• In official usage, the word 'manhole' will be replaced with 'machine-hole', the minister added.
