Recently, the second edition of National Annual Rural Sanitation Survey was released on the status of rural sanitation in India. Sanitation refers to public health conditions related to clean drinking water and adequate treatment and disposal of human excreta and sewage.

The salient feature of NARSS 2018-19 is that it has overcome the statistical shortfalls of NARSS 2017-18 and used the PPS (Probability Proportion to Size) sampling methodology, which yields results within a confidence interval of 95 per cent.

After approval from the Expert Working Group (EWG) (including the World Bank, UNICEF, Water Aid, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, India Sanitation Coalition, NITI Aayog, and Union Ministry of Statistics and Program Implementation), the results were presented to MDWS and the findings made public.
