• All households and premises segregate their waste into “wet waste” (from kitchen and gardens) and “dry waste” (including paper, glass, plastic, and domestic hazardous waste and sanitary waste wrapped separately).
• 100% door to door collection of segregated waste from each household/ premise;
• 100% scientific management of all fractions of waste, including safe disposal in scientific landfills;
• All legacy dumpsites remediated and converted into green zones;
• All used water including fecal sludge, especially in smaller cities are safely contained, transported, processed and disposed so that no untreated fecal sludge and used water pollutes the ground or water bodies. In order to achieve this vision, the following specific objectives are targeted to be achieved

In order to achieve this vision, the following specific objectives are targeted

a) Sustainable Solid Waste Management

• Ensuring cleanliness and hygiene in public places to make all cities clean and garbage free, with 100% scientific processing of MSW
• Reducing air pollution arising out of SWM activities.
• Phased reduction in use of single-use plastic.

b) Sustainable Sanitation and treatment of used water

• Holistic Sanitation, with end-to end solutions (from discharge, containment, evacuation, transportation to safe disposal of all effluents from toilets).
• Treatment of used water1 before discharge into water bodies, and maximum reuse of treated used water.
• Eradication of hazardous entry into sewers and septic tanks, and sustaining elimination of manual scavenging, through mechanization of sewer and septic tank cleaning operations.

c) awareness creation along with large scale citizen outreach to create ‘jan andolan’, and institutionalize ‘swachh’ behavior.

d) create institutional capacity to effectively implement programmatic interventions to achieve mission objectives
