Afghanistan to deploy India's sanitation sustainability plan on ODF Plus

India leads the way in South Asia to share technology and plans on clean water and sanitation, said a top Afghanistan official, pointing out that the deep political will that Prime Minister Narendra Modi demonstrated on sanitation was the only way for to achieve the nearly impossible impact on sanitation. Ghulam Qader, Executive Director for Afghanistan's National Rural Water Supply, Sanitation & Irrigation Programme, admitted that rebuilding a ravaged Afghanistan is more than a challenge, yet India's model could be deployed in his country to not just become open defecation free (ODF) but also go beyond to ODF Plus to ensure the sanitation ecosystem sustains and scales. The Afghan official complimented Indian society's contribution to achieving the sanitation goals, saying people's participation was a must and media, social media and NGOs all became pillars of not just oversight but generating awareness and implementation. Afghanistan has achieved ODF in 8 districts. South Asian Conference on Sanitation was another forum where regional countries especially India shared technology and innovation, and Afghanistan had been able to contextualise them locally to be successfully deployed.
