The document discusses the importance of access to clean drinking water and proper sanitation facilities in India. It notes that lack of access causes many deaths from diseases and prevents children from attending school. While access to sanitation has increased over the years, coverage remains lowest in the world. Proper water management is needed as many face water stress. Solutions proposed include increased government monitoring of facilities, raising awareness through schools, and the media bringing more attention to improving sanitation.
