This year has seen a lot of effort by public service groups and governments to stress on the importance of sanitation at home and outside, as well the need for toilets in not only cities, but villages as well. When Narendra Modi became Prime Minister, one of his key stated missions was to build toilets across rural India, so that every household has access to sanitation facilities.
