This report by the Centre for Governance and Budget Accountability (CGBA) and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), India, attempts to assess the magnitude of public spending on sanitation in India, specifically on the Total Sani

This document by Government of Chattisgarh spells out the characteristic features of the Chhattisgarh’s ground water bill.  This bill is meant to regulate and development of groundwater and matters connected with it. The bill was enacted by the state legislature in 2012.

Chhattisgarh brings to life the “gory” elements any state would fear – violence, struggle and bloodshed.  For over three decades Chhattisgarh and its people have been fighting with all this and have not lost – neither the battle nor the courage to keep combating.

Description:
In Chhattisgarh, the nodal agency for the water and sanitation sector reforms is Public Health Engineering Department (PHED). PHED is gradually taking a shift in its role from an implementer to a facilitator hence the communities and PRIs will have to play a critical role in development, operation and maintenance of water and sanitation facilities. The Anganwadis centers are the basic unit of Department of Women and Child Development which provide six services namely supplementary nutrition, immunization, health check-up, referral services, pre-school non-formal education and nutrition & health education. Anganwadis are responsible for providing the hot cooked meal as supplementary nutrition to children of age –groups 3-6 yrs along with non-formal pre-school education. In view of the critical services provided through Anganwadi Centers provision of permanent water supply and sanitation facilities is a must for quality delivery of services. In Chattisgarh there are about 30,000 Anganwadis out of which only 10109 have water and sanitation facilities. There is a need for urgent focus on provision of child friendly water and sanitation facilities in Anganwadis. This will require substantial capacity building efforts among various stakeholders at all levels.
