It is important to maintain personal hygiene to protect oneself from diseases and remain healthy. Awareness campaign on personal hygiene was conducted in primary school of Marapadol village, Rajaborari, Madhya Pradesh. A total of 40 students from class 1 to class 5 participated in the workshop.
Samples from hands, mouth, feet, unwashed clothes, hair, nails and drinking water were collected. A survey was carried with the objective of understanding the prevailing personal hygienic practices in tribal areas.
