Does the government build toilets in schools? Technically, yes – but often too late.
At the Secondary School of Zilla Parisad in the Rajole district in Mahabubabad, founded in 1947, only recently the boys stopped relaxing outside. For classes 6 to 10, the school has a power of about 200 students, of which 80 girls who have access to toilets. But only a few months ago, not boys.
The problem came from the physical headmaster of the school, Pill Kashinath, who invented a cheap innovation by repeating five liter plastic cans again as urinals. “One day, after a break in the toilet, the boy returned in tears. The man screamed at him to urinate on a private country. It upset him deep. At that time I thought students should not go out to relieve,” he said.

Kashinath with 2,000 GBP built a temporary urinal area with 10 repur by cans. Each can is horizontally cut and creates a flap that is attached to the wall, while the vertical cut opens the upper part for use. Inverted, spewing connects to the drain pipe. One conventional tube with hose and valve acts as a flushing system. The urinals are mounted at friendly heights.
Kashinath was attached to the project by 8 Karthik, Loksh and Komaram Puli, along with other students and teachers who bet on the games and time of activities. Materials such as asbestos, sand and stones roof leaves were re -used from the school space, while basic supplies such as pipe joints, cement, white distemper and red oxide oxide were purchased.
The setting is fully functional and the next step is to add roof leaves to ensure that urinals can be used during the rain. The initiative caused praise from the district educational official A. Ravinder Reddy, who launched the facility in March. School officials claim that efforts also gained coverage in local media.
“We had two options – to complain and wait for the government to do it, or would come up with what was available. Our success is that no student may go out to relieve,” said director A. Ravi Kumar.
Official reports show that the school was sanctioned new toilets, but allegedly the work was not carried out due to lack of funds.
