Sanitation Status in India
The statistics are even more alarming at school level. In India, 41.18 per cent schools don´t have separate toilets for girls. Some schools have only a single toilet, which is not clean. Single toilets increase the risk of not only disease transmission, but also sexual harassment. Many girls opt to drop out of school due to the lack of proper toilet facilities. It is especially true in the case of adolescent girls who skip school for five to six days every month, during menstruation. This hampers their education and leads them to drop out of school completely. The school drop out rate is 66 per cent for girls. Proper sanitation facilities in schools are critical for improving the rate of completion of school level education for the girls. Sahyadri Industries Limited (SIL) offers solution, which is hassle-free, environment friendly and fast to construct that is Cemply Swachalay - innovative green toilet blocks.
