NEW DELHI — India’s rural development minister is pushing a campaign on public hygiene, after a recent survey revealed that India accounts for 58 percent of the world’s population practicing open defecation.

Jairam Ramesh says the revelation is a source of national shame and a “sad commentary” on society’s failure to address the issue through education and better sanitation.


The government says it spends $350 million a year to build rural toilets, but some 638 million still rely on fields or quiet corners.

The UNICEF report puts China and Indonesia in second place, with each representing 5 percent of the world’s 1.1 billion open defecators.

Ramesh said Sunday that ***** was polluting the environment as well as public spaces, and Indian rivers had become sewers.

A slum free India........ not atleast in this century may be in next century.

Slums are not exactly the major reason for this. 70% rural population is. Ever been to a traditional village? There is a reason people there have special "lotas" :)).

But it's true that it needs to change.
 
In Malaysia, 98 per cent of the rural population has access to sanitation. This nearly universal sanitation access has resulted in a dramatic fall in incidence of cholera, dysentery, and typhoid.

:chilli:.

On topic, both India and Pakistan need to buck up when it comes to cleaning up their mess lol.
