Our honourable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra
Modi has started the "Swachh Bharat" campaign and from then, his
noble initiative has become viral. If not all at least one citizen in the
locality has started maintaining cleanliness. Probably an encouragement and
initiative like this was long overdue. Cleanliness is not just about sweeping
the road or clearing garbage. It is also about providing hygienic environment
for the people around by building clean toilets for public use. Building them
more in number should be the motive so that it is easy to match up with the
increasing population. Second step is to clean them regularly and provide
adequate water supply.
“Toilet for
Babli" is a great step taken by Domex -//www.domex.in/ towards
maintaining cleanliness and hygiene for a healthy India. A healthy India is a
rich India. As the healthier the people are the better the resources get
utilized and we get more manpower. A healthy child when educated can be one of
the best contributors for making India the best among the developed countries.
The ill effects apply the same for a male
and a female child. Sanitation is one of the basic modes of hygiene everyone
has to maintain because urine and feces are the major source of attracting
bacteria and virus which can spread through contact. This is one of the main causes of diarrhea,
intestinal worm infections, typhoid, cholera and hepatitis. Among these major
source of contamination is drinking water. This decomposed matter mixes with
the soil and get washed into the rivers and ponds or it can gets mixed with
soil. The villagers around use the same contaminated water for domestic
purposes. Thatis how everyone carries infection home. Open defecation attracts
mosquitoes and flies that breed on them. In return these transfer microorganisms
to food and water that is left uncovered. Sometimes these feces are unknowingly
consumed by children who are unaware of the sanitation issues. Children live
and play around that infected area , not knowing about the health hazards.
Parents are also uneducated and are not able to teach their children
about hygiene. Passing urine in public also has extreme health hazards and
mainly female children are more vulnerable to contracting Urinary Tract
Infections ( UTI). Young girls hesitate to urinate and defecate in public
because they are very shy. They try to hold urine while searching for a proper place to urinate.
Holding urine for a long time causes bladder distention and leads to urinary problems
mainly in females. Major cause of a social and psychological impact on
the future women of India. There are also safety issues for our young and
innocent Babli who goes to an open area where the chances of sexual abuse are
very high. This issue is very common since girls prefer isolated and dark areas
to urinate and defecate in the fear of being seen in public. They fall prey to
untoward incidents. Many cases of rape have been reported when young girls have
gone alone around thick vegetation for urination or defecation especially when
it is dark.
If the young generation is affected , the
future of our country is at stake. We should join hands for this cause and
bring a revolution.
Educated citizens like us who are aware of
the consequences should help such organizations like : Domex , to make their campaign and their noble initiative a success.
