ndia is a religious country with ancient civilization and having population diverse in religious and cultural belief. The International standards of sanitation and cleanliness point out the poor sanitation condition in our nation. The Mahatma Gandhi had a dream of clean India. He played a great role for making Indian clean and green. Moreover, the Government of India has followed hisfoot prints and launched a Mission named "Swachh Bharat Abhiyan" The Mission was started byHon'ble Prime Minister of India Mr. Narendra Damodardas Modi on 2nd of October, 2014 on the occasion of 145th Birth anniversary of Mahatama Ghandhi at Rajghat, New Delhi with an aim to make clean India. The Mission aims to provide upliftment to the maintenance of adequate disposal system of domestic sewage, cleanliness in rural and urban development, availability of safe and clean drinking water to all the citizens. Mission aim to complete sanitary India dream through"Swachh Bharat Abhiyan" by the year 2019. Some of the ministries involved in mission for the sanitary India are Ministry of Rural Development, Ministry of Urban Development, Ministry of Drinking water and Sanitation, Public Sector Undertaking, Corporations, National Government Organizations, State Governments, Defence Research and Development Organisation etc. However, it has been clearly declared that the campaign is not only the duty of the government alone but each and every citizen of the country is equally responsible to keep the nation clean and green.So lets make mission for sanitary india for the Aligarh city in Uttar Pradesh and problems encountered in the accomplishment of goal. This paper gives current scenario of India with respect to case study of municipal solid waste quantity, quality and its management strategy.

This volume represents a unique collection of thoughts, ideas, views and visions of a number of water management experts. The book envisions long-lasting practices in safe water and waste management by talking to local community members, governments, and business owners, in order to find out how they live and what they need to feel healthy, safe, empowered, and successful.The sheer diversity of subjects, strength of arguments, force of articulation and the breadth of vision offered here is sure to provoke the reader to think about India. It highlights that the future of the emerging urban society lies in the proper management of waste and not in mere disposal. It comprehensive index facilitates easy reference and accessibility to the reader. As such, it will be useful for policy makers, administrators, research scholars and other stakeholders.

Enterprises have to adapt their systems to support frequent technological changes, mergers and acquisitions. This handbook leverages the experiences of thought leaders functioning in multiple industry verticals and provides knowledge for creating the agile enterprise

ABSTRACTThe aim of this study was to evaluate the comparative status of oral health practices, oral hygiene, and periodontal status amongst visually impaired and sighted students. In this study, 142 visually impaired children from a blind school in the age group of 6–18 years were enrolled with a similar number of age and sex matched sighted students studying in different schools of Chandigarh. The outcome variables were oral hygiene practices, oral hygiene status, and periodontal status. The visually impaired had been found to have better oral hygiene practices, a nonsignificant difference of oral hygiene scores but a significantly high value for bleeding scores as compared to sighted students. Age wise comparisons showed that bleeding scores were highly significant in 9–11 years and 12–14 years age group as compared to 6–8 years and 15–18 years age group. It could be related that the increased prevalence of bleeding sites despite of better oral hygiene practices in visually impaired group might be the result of their handicap to visualize plaque.

PurposeIn this research, the authors apply artificial neural networks (ANNs) to uncover non-linear relationships among factors that influence the productivity of ragpickers in the Indian context.Design/methodology/approachA broad long-term action research program provides a means to shape the research question and posit relevant factors, whereas ANNs capture the true underlying non-linear relationships. ANN models the relationships between four independent variables and three forms of waste value chains without assuming any distributional forms. The authors apply bootstrapping in conjunction with ANNs.FindingsThe authors identify four elements that influence ragpickers' productivity: receptiveness to non-governmental organizations, literacy, the deployment of proper equipment/technology and group size.Research limitations/implicationsThis study provides a unique way to analyze bottom of the pyramid (BoP) operations via ANNs.Social implicationsThis study provides a road map to help ragpickers in India raise incomes while simultaneously improving recycling rates.Originality/valueThis research is grounded in the stakeholder resource-based view and the network–individual–resource model. It generalizes these theories to the informal waste value chain at BoP communities.
