Open Defecation Free Plan

Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar, while asserting that the state government would provide toilets to all its villages as part of the Open Defecation Free (ODF)scheme, said that villages within wildlife sanctuaries needed to be tackled differently.

Kerala will be declared as open defecation-free state on its formation day on November 1 with the CPIM-led LDF government planning to invite Prime Minister Narendra Modi to attend a function in Thiruvananthapuram.

A national-level telephone helpline will be made operational to help over 4,000 urban local bodies across the country achieve 100 percent open defecation free status as part of Narendra Modi government's ambitious 'Swachh Bharat Mission'.
