urged one and all to respect and keep the toilets clean always. She informed
that the government of India since the launched of Swachh Bharat Mission in 2014
has prioritized construction of toilets to thousands of households in India by
adding that toilets are very important for the health, safety and dignity of
women, elderly persons, girls, and children and to protect the environment. She

several diseases like diarrhea, fever, dysentery, vomiting and other sanitation
related diseases.

our dining room toilet is the most important place in our lives and thus it is
very important to maintain and keep it clean always. He added that in olden
days when open defecation was prevalent people did not have peace to ease
themselves because they have several observers like pigs, dogs, insects, snakes
and even itching leaves therefore, toilets have relieved people from this
difficulty and safety. He therefore, urged people to use toilet properly, keep
them clean and should be in forefront when we plan to construct a house.
Speaking on the theme ‘Use and Maintenance of toilets’, Shri. R.
Nongdhar, SDO PHE Cum-District Coordinator Swachh Bharat said that we need to
keep toilets clean and maintain them well because they are important places in
our lives. He urged participants that celebration of ‘World Toilet Day, 2020’
should not end within the four walls but they should be ambassadors of
cleanliness and encourage people to use toilets respectfully. He added that
open defecation not only destroy the beauty of the environment but also hamper
our own lives since they will pollute the sources or water, will spread
diseases and create foul smell.
