Although the&nbsp;</em><em>evidence is overwhelmingly clear that the reduction of open defecation in rural India will not be&nbsp;</em><em>importantly accelerated by the large investments in government latrines proposed by the&nbsp;&nbsp;</em><em>‘Swachh Bharat Mission’, it is not a suitable way to accelerating the reduction of open&nbsp;</em><em>defecation in rural India.&nbsp;</em><em>We know, mother is the best teacher to their children. An educated womanhasability to solve&nbsp;</em><em>family problems &amp; learn new skills to play a role in country economy. Only woman is the last</em><br><em>resort, that she can change our environment. So, thanks to different creativities by the state&nbsp;</em><em>Government as well as the central Government. The strategies introduced by the Indian&nbsp;</em><em>Government have upgraded the education status of women but still lot of work needs to be done.&nbsp;</em><em>“Women education reflects country development”. Every family takes a vital step to educate &amp;&nbsp;</em><em>save the girl child.
