No break-down.* Simple and easy to operate.* Operated and maintained by CREDAI team.* Highly successful and proven model.

What Next …. ?

•CCCM is in full alignment with “Swach Bharat Abhiyan” launched by Prime Minister.

* Create a legal frame work for mandatory implementation.

* Partner with social/voluntary organizations to spread the message.
