    This report presents a comprehensive assessment of sanitation practices in the villages of Moti Banugar and Jambuda in Gujarat. Undertaken as part of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (Clean India Mission), this project reflects the Indian government’s commitment to eradicating open defecation and promoting hygiene in rural and urban areas alike. Sanitation is a foundational element of public health, influencing not only the well-being of individuals but also the socio-economic and environmental conditions of entire communities. This project, therefore, seeks to understand the prevailing sanitation practices in these villages, identify areas of improvement, and propose practical recommendations that align with both local needs and Swachh Bharat's larger goals. Moti Banugar and Jambuda, situated approximately 18 kilometers from Jamnagar, are primarily agrarian villages where traditional practices often influence daily life, including sanitation behaviors. Through this study, we assessed the current infrastructure, community attitudes, and challenges related to waste management, hygiene, and access to clean facilities. The project employed various research methodologies, including direct observation, interviews with villagers and local leaders, as well as a survey of facilities like schools, healthcare centers, and anganwadis (childcare centers).
