World Toilet Day-Nov 19

-

A UN report says 55% of Indians (600 mn people) do not have toilets and most of them defecate outer.

The proudest report for Indians further reveals:-

In Mumbai’s slum areas, approximate 81 people share a single toilet at minimum.

In some places it shows a high growth rate up to 273 people having a single toilet.

The Founder & President of the WTO( not World Trade Org) World Toilet Organization Mr. Jack Sim has undertaken a task to improve hygiene across the globe including India.

He says such situations causes various illnesses like diarrhea and kills about 1000 kids aged below 5 everyday in our country.

Personally, I don’t believe these overstuffed figures, but still some 400-450 mn people are there with out minimum facilities.

Just don't care ....Let them bark…. Above all... we are searching water in moon… !
