The Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) is a comprehensive programme launched in the year 1986 with the objectives of improving the quality of life of rural people and providing privacy and dignity to women. The concept of sanitation was expanded in 1993 to include personal hygiene, home sanitation, sewage water and disposal of garbage, human excreta and wastewater.
The purpose of the evaluation study is the effective execution of the scheme, the funds allocated and distributed and the transparency and accountability in the implementation of the scheme.
