The Lighthouse Initiative under Swachh Bharat Mission Grameen Phase II convened GP stakeholders in Prithla Block, Palwal, Haryana on January 22, 2026. The orientation brought together India Sanitation Coalition, CRY, Knorr-Bremse, and the Department of Drinking Water & Sanitation to advance ODF Plus models.

Key speakers included Mr. Sanjay Kumar Pandey (Team Lead, Central PMU for LHI, DDWS), Ms. Rupali Agrawal (CSR Head, Knorr-Bremse), Ms. Sukriti Makkar (Sr. Programme Manager, ISC), and Mr. Rakesh Kumar (Gram Sachiv, Block Prithla).

Discussions focused on solid-liquid waste management, community engagement, behavior change, and village development planning with active participation from Sarpanches and Swachhta Sathis.

The training emphasized practical solutions including household waste segregation, composting methods (NADEP, vermicomposting), greywater management, and plastic waste reduction. A highlight of the session was the showcase of Knorr-Bremse's greywater management initiative already underway in Baghola village, demonstrating real-world implementation and impact.

Participants committed to developing priority-based Village Development Plans, with Baghola Gram Panchayat identified as the pilot GP. Special focus was placed on the construction and functionality of the GP Segregation Shed at Baghola, which will serve as a critical infrastructure component for effective waste management and a demonstration model for other villages.

The initiative leverages funding from SBM-G, 15th Finance Commission, MGNREGA, and CSR contributions to create replicable models of sanitation excellence across rural India.

A decade of transforming lives through sanitation, hygiene, and clean water. As we celebrate 10 years of impact, the India Sanitation Coalition is evolving to meet India’s pressing environmental challenges. We are expanding beyond WASH to address plastic pollution, climate action, and clean air—because sustainable health requires holistic solutions.

Our integrated approach tackles waste management, improves air quality, and creates plastic-free environments alongside essential sanitation services. From village-level behavior change programs to community-led waste segregation systems, our interventions are creating lasting transformation where it matters most: at the grassroots, in every neighborhood, empowering communities to build their own sustainable future.

Heartfelt thanks to Ms. Pranjal, a student of Class XI for being the voice of Tara. 💙

“From awareness to action, from collaboration to change.”

Mr. Ravi Bhatnagar, Communications and Corporate Affairs Director, South Asia, MENARP and Africa, Reckitt, reflects on a decade-long journey with the India Sanitation Coalition, one that transformed sanitation from a challenge into a people-powered movement rooted in dignity and equity.

At Reckitt and ISC, the mission is shared: access to hygiene and health is a right, not a privilege.

Here’s to 10 years of partnership, purpose, and progress.

#ISCForDignity is making an impact. Our last video sparked powerful conversations around the ongoing injustice of manual scavenging, and many of you asked what more can be done.

At India Sanitation Coalition, we believe that silence is not an option. Change begins with awareness, accountability, and collective will.

If you have a story to share or want to support this cause, write to us at [email protected].
Let’s build a future where dignity is non-negotiable.

Ms. Naina Lal Kidwai, Chair, India Sanitation Coalition & Past President, FICCI, has outlined key expectations for the Union Budget 2025 in her @EconomicTimes article. Her primary focus areas include:

1) Tax Reductions: To boost demand and stimulate economic growth.

2) Export Push: To strengthen the economy by increasing exports.

3) Strategic Public Health Investments: To improve healthcare outcomes and protect against climate vulnerabilities.

At the core of her recommendations is the need to prioritize climate-adaptive WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) infrastructure. This includes community-driven solutions and capacity building to protect against climate-related challenges.

Additionally, Ms. Kidwai emphasizes the importance of a budget that supports:

1) Working Women: Through initiatives that promote gender equality and economic empowerment.

2) Job Creation: To stimulate economic growth and reduce unemployment.

3) Sustainable Development: To ensure a resilient and inclusive future for all.

Overall, Ms. Kidwai's recommendations highlight the need for a comprehensive and sustainable approach to economic development, one that prioritizes the needs of all stakeholders, including working women, and addresses the challenges posed by climate change.
