I would recommend constructing common toilets for a group of poor families based on the number of family members and total population of the group. Form a group committee consisting of 10% of members of the group and they should be responsible for maintaining the cleanliness. Then form a monitoring committee comprising of the volunteers to check the condition of the toilets regularly and report to the administrative authority. The same can be applicable to both urban and rural areas.

"AWAKENING IS KEY FOR THIS LOCK" Problem can be divided into two parts-\ 1: Solution for Urban areas 2.Solution for Rural areas 1. In urban areas there should be some facilities should be given and some strictness to bringout. And people of particular area sholud be rewarded for thier sanitation. Remove the poor people to such place where thier life can be improved or give them shelter,where they are. 2.In villages where is no toilet,make public toilets for free for some time.

1) Identify locations where a toilet needs to be built.Once a location is finalised, work should begin immediately. The use of the toilet should require NO money. 2) Awareness should be spread about the toilets built, urging the public to use them. 3) Janitors should be employed to look after all the toilets of a an area. They should visit and clean each toilet once every hour. 4) Special importance should be given to toilets near monuments,and heritage sites. Tourists should not be affected
