Rajiv Pratap Rudy, MoS, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship during Swachh India Cleanathon: It is shameful that in today's day and age we are a laughing stock in front of the entire world. Either we don't have toilets, or we have toilets where we don't have water, if we have water then toilets have no doors. It is a very big challenge and state governments have a huge role to play.
