Much of India's progress can be attributed to several ambitious programs aimed at boosting living standards. For example, only 70 percent of people had access to electricity across the country in 2007 and by 2017, that had increased to 93 percent, according to The World Bank. Before Prime Minister Norendra Modi came to power, just under 40 percent of India's population had access to a household toilet. Billions were then invested under the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan ("Clean India") campaign which started in October 2014. It has proven hugely successful and India's Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation states that basic sanitation coverage in the country has now increased to 99.45 percent (as of July 2019).
