NEW DELHI: In one-fourth of nearly two lakh villages, which have been declared open defecation free (ODF), all houses don't have toilets, according to the integrated data that the Centre maintains.

Finding this difference, the drinking water and sanitation ministry has asked states to update the data so that there is no mismatch.

Villages can become open-defecation free only when each household has an individual latrine. The government has given top priority to end open defecation across the country by October 2019 as part of its Swachh Bharat initiative.

In a recent communication to states, the sanitation ministry said 33% of the total 6,05,828 villages have been declared as ODF.
