“All Govt. schools must have toilets by November-end”

-The Hindu
 
The Supreme Court on Tuesday directed all States and Union Territories to build toilets, particularly for girls, in all government schools by the end of November.

A Bench headed by Justice D.K. Jain asked all governments to take immediate steps for this and file their compliance report before the deadline fixed by it.

In case of any problem, the governments will at least provide temporary toilets for the students by November-end and a permanent structure by December 31, it said. “It is imperative for the governments to provide toilet facilities to students. Parents would not the send girl child to school if there is no toilet.”

The Court passed the order on a petition seeking its direction to governments to provide basic facilities of drinking water and toilets in schools. It was also told that all the States except Uttar Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir have complied with its previous order on providing drinking water in schools. — PTI
