GL writes: I give credit to the young girls who reportedly will not consider marriage to a man whose home does not have indoor toilet. Kudos to the women and their supportive parents. IMO, no credit to discredit is due the PM or the politicians on this score. Neither is it their job. It is society that has to bring pressure on others to improve their basic living standards. I support the PM expending the energy and the country's resources to pull the nation up from the top rather than pushing the nation up from the bottom. Should building toilet in every home be the nation's priority and take preference over building schools and colleges? And then what does one do with the brilliant minds? ...... Build toilets?
