A groundbreaking study has found that the Swachh Bharat Mission, initiated by Prime Minister Modi, may have saved the lives of 60,000-70,000 children every year by improving sanitation and reducing disease rates. The cleanliness campaign has had a direct impact on public health, particularly in rural areas where access to proper sanitation was limited.
The mission’s success is attributed to its focus on eliminating open defecation and promoting hygiene, which has drastically lowered the incidence of diseases such as diarrhea. This study highlights the far-reaching effects of the initiative on the health and well-being of millions across India.
