Manual scavenging is one of the most filthiest job that goes against the humanity. In India, this work is done by the people those are termed under the untouchability category. As time progress, India progress to get rid of the need of manual scavenging by introducing new bill in 2012 i.e prohibition of Manual Scavenging and rehabilitation bill which widen the term of dry pits to sceptic tanks and railway tracks.
Its gives rise to various social issues like sense of untouchability, poverty as it is one of the lowest earning jobs, health issue like respiratory disease and cardiovascular diseases. These are the visible issues which can be taken care but the effect on environment is hitherto in it. No of environment issue occurs due to the excreta generated by human being are below :
1. Contamination of soil and ground water by the process of leaching of the soil. Studies shows that People those are using well water that is near to dry pit are more prone to diseases.
2. Give rise to insanitary environment which leads to disease.
3. Contaminated water goes to rivers that poses danger to aquatic habitants. Overall death of primary consumer leads to unbalanced food pyramid.
India is thriving to pose more stringent punishment by introducing new bills and by amending the old one, but the lack of vision by no of state actor give rise to such inhuman condition like creating more dry latrines, open pit holes near religious place for pilgrims. Need of hour is to introduce a bioculture everywhere that should give a better life to everyone.
