Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan, or Clean India Mission, in October 2014, with the aim to eradicate open defecation, build 1.1 million toilets and clean up public places, among other things. Government released the result of #swachhsurvekshan on 15th February 2016 which used data from 25 teams of surveyors who visited 42 locations in each city, including railway and bus stations, religious places, markets, residential areas and toilet complexes. The survey teams took more than 3,066 photos.
