We salute these initiatives aimed to make life less stressful and more convenient for the public. It is more challenging for women to find public toilet facilities. We have highlighted stations where women’s toilets seem to be locked, Sometimes, these toilets seem to have missing attendants and may be unsafe for women late evenings or at night.

Many toilets, both men and women, are locked up waiting for some important person to inaugurate the entire block. There are some toilets across the city that are simply unusable. It is extremely tough for women who are out on the roads on work, or commuting, to find toilets. It is dangerous for health and induces major stress.

That is why this is an important and needed measure and we hope this will spawn similar facilities in other high footfall areas.

This infra must be maintained. This means firstly, it should be well lit. There must be attendants, and it should be clean with running water. If there are timings, they should be clearly mentioned outside at all times. Users too, must respect the facility and vandalism is inexcusable and in fact, invite crimes 
and punishment.
