my. my. my. all we can be the generation that ends it good malaria must die so millions can live. this is the doctor news asia coming up in the program india's ghost toilets the government's clean india campaign claims to have built millions of trains well. many villages are students forced to go into fields. leaving with the dead a report on why these cambodians have found a happy home among the tombstones at the local cemetery.

five british welcome to be. it's good to have you with us imagine having to walk to the nearest field of forest every time you want to use the toilet this is the reality for millions in my country to tackle it the government in twenty fourteen said so at the start of completely eliminating open definition by october this year more than one hundred ten million toilets are expected to be built under the so-called green india campaign the government is claiming that twenty seven of india's thirty six states and union territories are now free of the problem but a nationwide study by an enduro has found otherwise we'll speak to a researcher in a bit but first this report from our correspondent sonia will travel to the recently renamed town of the british to find out more.

it's a must do it with the pretty much the last speakers here have a duty secret. has never had a toilet. she has to walk more than a kilometer every day to relieve. the ritual with indignities andrus. next night we have to carry a torch and the steak i come here with other women and young children we stand watch first because the children get scared there are wild animals in the fields sometimes there are men around it is scary it's safer to come in a group. these experienced is a chop odds with the government's much touted campaign to eliminate often difficult . signs warn of the health risks associated with the practice and urged people to use toilets. so. the clean india effort has even roped in

bollywood stars to spread the message the government offers twelve thousand that's about one hundred fifty euros want to get your house so it's only in villages. as part of the clean india campaign the government claims it's building hundreds of millions of toilets it says it has completely eliminated open definition in most indian states but in the villages be visited and with that with that with far from being the case. in one village the toilets stand half baked many residency they haven't received the food subsidy the facilities here are missing roofs and seeds and a very obviously not. of this is made this mans that the toilets being built on too flimsy and wouldn't last long but there are allegations of caution to. me that the government did give the money for a story at

a price. the head of the village told us if we don't get toilets made we will get subsidized food grain those are orders from the motor government we are poor people we really depend on the food handouts so i decided to build the toilet. it's. back at the place another irregularity emerges. the clean india website declares hope ilitch to be free of open difficult with two hundred thirty four toilets installed but that doesn't add up and i doubt there are just about four or five people in our village who have toilets you can check yourself how can the government say all of us have toilets that's just wrong there is collusion among the officials no one has ever come here to check. the story details on new for research and as a college he's visited about eighty villages across the state for much sighted

study on the campaigns and the corruption story is every bit you saw for yourself right don't look to don't exist is just on the table the officials are going to use my me on is there for themselves to take something really serious. runs the company and not to put h he says the ghost story that income of babies village definitely need investigation but he insists it's an isolated case because really we are very very very big restrict actions if somebody is phone to give false information or. what i think there's no murder should not be a very large and the picture which i'm going to do that this open division almost has come down. with us and. as. she stood waiting for her promised toilet. ratchford they said and i think she's already marked a place for it in front of parole. john we know the line is another holiday he's

a research fellow from the research institute for compassionate economics in delhi and other good to see you know your organization has conducted research and you're on the phone with that corruption has been a part of this campaign that the debate has been dogged by corruption what exactly the girl uncovered here so one thing to note is that corruption in this clean india program is definitely less than what it was in previous programs but. places like the how do you know really come in the way of implementing this it has slowed down the pace of construction of latrines and you know so that is why. it is lagging behind now the report also mentions most of the people are being coerced into building towards what is not happening yeah that's true so a lot of course in is happening it's very common people are being threatened with

fight loss of loss of. people that developed argument fines loss of subsidized grains loss of pension extra reason is because you know the government is. the government has set forth our target by it wants to eliminate open defecation completely in india and it had chosen to focus a lot on ballot construction another down the kinds of the thing the government is promoting has smaller precise and. also expand inexpensive to construct but at the same time people. have notions believes. which make them not to use electrons which have smaller players they want larger size that means we have expensive to construct and that is why you know so so they don't have and at the same time they don't have enough money to construct these expensive vitrines so government has to use certain some force in order to make people construct these

latrines. right so in your all of you who knows or has to clean india can be achieved anything at all or has it been a complete failure no i wouldn't see i wouldn't say that it has been a complete failure it has accelerated the b.s. off the train construction in india which has led to substantially declining in open defecation but then the claim that is being made is that. going to fiction is all but eliminated but there is that is very feel that this is not true. so just that forty four percent of people in india in two lanes in northern parts still defecate in the open so. and also you know the thing about the beliefs of all larger beats and not using smaller pieces these are related to your notions of. not wanting to clean their own feet and the government has this was a great opportunity for the government to address these the only place notions and

make people understand the significance of these inexpensive smaller people are trained right now as i call it from the research institute for compassionate economics in delhi thank you very much for speaking to us. and some feedback from our u two page on yesterday's story one of the prospects of peace with the taliban we are asked why the of government doesn't have a seat at the table to that of this response from k. back up the afghan government is a puppet government put in place by the united states they don't represent the afghan people i think they will fall after the u.s. leaves also a response to the young of feature of who feared a rollback of freedoms could be the price of peace with the taliban. how long can they expect foreign soldiers and taxpayers to support their lifestyle if they want to live life style there must be structure fires if they are unwilling to fight the taliban would suppress them we welcome some more of your comments please join the
