Jairam ji ki: we need more toilets
We don't need more temples; we need more toilets so that our girl child living in villages doesn't have to drop out from the school just because it doesn't have a proper toilet. We may disagree with Jairam Ramesh on may issues, but here we need to provide him as much support as we can.

FOR THE first time in his life Jairam Ramesh has talked sense. The champion of MNREGA scheme, which I wish that he shuts down, has said something correct for a change. Making a temple may be great, but we have enough temples and India needs more toilets.

They are more important today and water and sanitation are the need of the hour and here Mukul Wasnik will also agree on this. Incidentally I had the pleasure to shake hands with him when he had come to Lucknow a few days ago, and Nasim Khan, chairman of the Indira Awas Yojana Nigrani Samiti accompanied me.

The middle class thinks that Jairam made a boo boo when he said the loo was important for Indian society. The media went on a Jairam bashing spree. He deserves to be bashed for other reasons but not this.

Today journalists have become glorified stenographers and have no intellectual content in their writing nor do they have any analytical skills. So indulging in Jairam bashing based on the press releases of his opponents is the best they can do. But please consider....

Those who have a toilet in their house spare a thought for the girl child who cannot go to school after the age of twelve as her school does not have a toilet and she can no longer go out with the boys to pee specially not on those days... she is no longer carefree ..

Spare a thought for the poor women who have to go out of the house at 4.00 am while it is still dark carrying a lota (mug) in one hand and a knife or hasiya for defence in another...

In India we need a weapon to protect ourselves while shitting.. things cant get shittier...

But Mantriji, engineer sahab and babuji and thekedar bhaiyya stole the money meant for my loo...

So I cant study and have to leave school, some kindly citizen thought I needed sanitary napkins so he included them in the NRHM programme… but that too disappeared God knows where and this too when we had a woman chief minister in Uttar Pradesh, the girl child seems to say.

I would sincerely ask Jairam Ramesh, Mukul Wasnik and even Markandey Katju to put in word with the Congress High Command and revive the National Herald and the Quami Awaz as the Conrgess needs a proper newspaper to express its views and counter criticism. I also strongly recommend my name for the post of editor. The editor is after all entitled to a separate toilet and one which is kept neat and clean.

We can use other newspapers there as toilet papers. Keep up the good work Jairam and Mukul. I am with you on this one..

Of course we need more toilets, but do not compare it with temples.
