| Abstract | In view of widespread practice of open defecation, the technological options presented will help in accelerating the sanitation drive in rural India. Not because they are cheap or easy to use but also suitable to the respective conditions, environment friendly as well as addressing the needs of the people. The sustainability, therefore, of the sanitary system if created, increases manifold which helps in improvement and reinforcement of hygiene practice. It is expected that with support of TSC Programme, this note will help watsan practioners in their efforts to make India open defecation free by 2012 and achieve the Millennium Development Goal much ahead of the UN timeframe.
