Option 4 : Safaimitra Suraksha Challenge-2021

The correct answer is Safaimitra Suraksha Challenge-2021.

  • On November 19, 2020, the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) launched the Safaimitra Suraksha Challenge-2021 in honour of World Toilet Day.
  • Its goal is to increase mechanised cleaning of sewers and septic tanks while avoiding harmful cleaning.
  • It also wants to focus on the following aspects: mechanical sewage and septic tank cleaning to reduce the need for human entrance, providing suitable protective wear and equipment, and identifying and integrating informal labour into formal mechanisms.
  • 246 cities were nominated to take part in this initiative. During the Safaimitra Suraksha Challenge, field inspections were conducted in these cities, with a total of 31000+ feedback received.
  • Call centres and helpline numbers for safe cleaning have been established in 345 cities as part of the Safaimitra Suraksha Challenge (SSC), with the '14420' helpline number being used to date for safe cleaning of septic tanks/sewers and submitting complaints on hazardous cleaning.
  • The Responsible Sanitation Authority (RSA) has been established in 31 states/UTs, and the Sanitation Response Units have been established in 210 cities (SRU).
