Search bharath have been an ambitious project of Indian government to turn our environment clean and neat. But it is mainly focus on constructing infrastructure like toilets while failed to educate the mass why they should use it. Still inspire of having the facilities people are still openly defecating which is due to their cultural inertia. So more focus should be given to change the behavior of the people in the later stages of the program.
