hEyA here u go....

Under this law, the first step to preventing manual scavenging is demolishing 'insanitary latrines'. This Act came into force in December 2013. It imposed certain time bound commitments by the local authorities (municipal bodies, cantonment boards and railway authorities).

Step 1Within 2 months of the Act, the local authority had to:

Carry out a survey of insanitary latrines in its area, and

Publish a list of all such latrines which were identified during the survey.

Step 2Within 15 days of publishing this list, the authority had to send a notice to the person who had constructed or used the insanitary latrine asking her to either convert it into a sanitary latrine or pull it down. The person has 6 months to do this. If she is not able to do this within 6 months, the local authority can grant an extension for up to 3 months if there are good reasons.Step 3Another additional duty the local authority had to finish within 9 months was to build as many sanitary latrines as it considers necessary in the areas the insanitary latrines have been found.Step 4The local authorities need to build an adequate number of sanitary latrines for the community in their respective areas within 3 years.

The local authorities are responsible for the building and maintenance of these community sanitary latrines and must make sure that they are functional and hygienic.
