With the use of secondary and primary data the report has not only been able to give a macro view of the TSC but also has been able to go into the nitty-gritty of the campaign. There are case studies of districts and villages that have achieved open defecation free status.
The study identifies 6 process indicators at the district level and grades the districts according to the use of these processes. They are - strategy for TSC implementation, institutional structure and capacity, programme approach to creating demand and scaling up, technology promotion and supply chain, financing and incentives and finally monitoring.
The report has been broken down into 5 chapters which are
A second document contains all the annexures. The annexures include data on benchmarking states and districts on the various process indicators, expenditures for constructing toilets at schools and in the homes of Above Poverty Line (APL) and Below Poverty Line (BPL) families, per capita district budget, average expenditure in anganwadi's etc.
Tables provide information on the incentives provided by this award to both the community and those implementing the sanitation campaign. A flow chart provides the decision making structure and the direction of flow of funds for this campaign.
It has been found that there has been an increase in the level of acceptance of sanitation in rural India. Sanitation coverage has increased from 22% in 2001 to 65% in 2010. Graphs provide more information on this. However, from the data analysis one sees a difference in sanitation coverage between states which is also analysed through graphs and tables.
It was found that the average allocation for the total sanitation campaign in the districts was Rs 30 crore. Arunachal Pradesh had the lowest allocation - Rs 4 crore while Andhra Pradesh had the highest at Rs 73 crore. It was found that more was spent in the hardware component of the programme. Data is also provided on such expenditure for households and schools in each state through tables and graphs. The average school toilet expenditure is Rs 17,320/-.
Coverage of school sanitation under TSC in each state is provided through a graph. Also there are comparisons between sanitation coverage in schools and households.
It was found that most states gave equal importance to BPL households and APL house holds in providing sanitation. However, nationally BPL households were given higher priority.
