- This initiative was taken to encourage and inspire all the schools in the nation to have better sanitization system in schools.
- As a result students, mainly girls will not leave/stop schools midway for health issue or unhygienic system. This will enhance the health of the students as well.
How would school be awarded :
- In this scheme (initiative) the schools will be ranked and awarded on national level by the central government of India.
