Lack of toilets compel girls to drop out of schools, once they hit puberty, thus hampering their education.
Just washing hands can prevent, as many as 40% cases of diarrhoea and 30% of respiratory infections.
Last year, the economic ramification of inadequate sanitation was evaluated at more than a whopping Rs. 4,75,000 crores.
