Toilet facilities in Government offices/public buildings are IMPORTANT Aam Admi
facilities, specially for senior citizens ,being made to run from pillar to
post, waiting for government servant to have his tea and sandwich break, come
back to his seat from wherever he has disappeared etc. There are facilities for
them, not available to public.There are many toilets in Mamlatdars building
Mapusa.Waiting for RTI hearing in CIC office,Patto,I was told to use the
Sulab, luckily close by at Rs1/- only for a piss.In the Chief Ministers
residence/office at Altinho,Panaji,I was sent outside to one used by the staff
I presume. It was leaking, broken seat cover and so on.When I brought this to
notice of the PA, he said I could use the one in house.I told him thats not the
point.Why is that staff toilet so badly maintened in the CMs
building! Same was the case in The Governors Palace, Dona Paula. When PWD
maintains, and there is so much staff for simple duties, so much money wasted
on decoration/furniture upgrade etc, I fail to undersstand this state of
affairs. And they talk of culture,the same people.
I remember long back,when the Indian Navy called on Kuwait.The British
Embassy toilet was clean,dry,with Old Spice sprays and talcum, lavender soap
,towels whilst at the Indian Embassy there,I was shocked to see it flooded and
stinking! I visited a patient at the military hospital in Delhi in the morning
.Everything was spick and span.In the evening the patient dreaded to visit the
toilet,officers ward. Perhaps that is why they keep toilets locked. Education,
media blitz and toilet trainning should be included in our curriculum..
