This is the fresh condition of toilets in most of the Dalit settlements in Province 2 of open Defecation Nepal, which has been declared at a cost of billions of rupees by the government and development partners.

These latest photos are of Dhobiniya Musahar Basti, Dhankaul rural municipality, Sarlahi district, state 2.

Should the government and development partners only declare open defecation-free or monitor and continue? Should the media also raise such a question?
