I never heard about a day dedicated to toilets. November 19 world toilet day. I remember the past days where there is no toilets and people used the open place. Still in India some villages have not the facility of toilets and the persons who affected due to this is mostly women.
I agree entirely with you. It is ridiculous to argue that using the roads as toilets if fine. In India, these are also caste specific. There are some castes that simply do not understand the value of public hygiene. At the same time, for funds, the Government should involve the corporates so that they can also contribute to the noble cause of public hygiene. Non-governmental organizations need to take up massive education programs.
I once heard a foreigner who woke up in a train while the train was about to reach Delhi in the morning and she saw so many people using train tracks for toilet purpose saying- India is a big latrine.

Merely dedicating any day will do no good. In our country there is a huge requirement for public toilets and toilets for "have nots". In addition those toilet that we have should be properly maintained.

Definitely. Is there any doubt ? Thia truth need not be expressed by a foreigner. It's a universal truth.
