Re: In Bharat 800 million defecate out in the open
^ Look one post above. Girls in India are being deprived from education because of the “latrine” problem…

Indian men urinate “one” the walls. Go ahead and read my two previous posts. # 82 and 83… which I am sure you have read but ignored them.

**A sanitation emergency **

“I WAS always first in the class. I am very much interested in studies. I want to become a lawyer. But my mother stopped me from going to school after Class V as the middle school I was attending, 5 km from my house, had no toilet. Can someone help me?”
Eleven-year-old Susheela’s anguish is shared by a large number of girls in India who drop out of school for what sounds like an absurd reason: want of a toilet in school. “Sanitation is closely linked to female literacy in India,” says a United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) study. According to V. Balakrishnan, convener of the Tamil Nadu Primary Schools Improvement Campaign, the lack of proper toilet facilities in schools has a definite and significant bearing on the drop-out rate of girls, particularly around the time they reach Class VIII. **In 2000, barely 10 per cent of Tamil Nadu’s 40,000 government schools had usable toilets; the figure is much lower for the country as a whole. **
