According to JMPWSS report which track the progress on drinking water and sanitation status that 17 states had already achieved the MDG target .
In India 51% or 626 million people in the country defecate in the Open , accounting 60% of the worlds total open defecation
we achieved some good results on safe drinking water but it is limited to some section of people .
In Rural areas ,91% had no access to sanitation in 1990as against 67% in 2010 .
In rural areas rich had more access to sanitation as compared to economically poor & dalit section of society which had less access to safe drinking water and sanitation .
4 out of 10 people whi have gained access to improved sanitation since 1990 lives in china or India .
About 2.5 billion people without improved sanitation too live in these two countries .
A Recent world bank report indicate that economic impact of Inadequate Sanitation in India in 2006 was Rs1.7 trillion and in 2010 Rs 2.4 trillion .
we can achieve the target only by corruption free implementation of the project .
