Bihar woman builds toilet by begging
Story highlights
Amina Khatoon, a resident of Pathra Uttar village in Supaul district, begged in neighbouring villages to collect money for a toilet
Despite the nationwide push on building toilets, government officials in Bihar refused to allocate funds to a widow who wanted to get a toilet constructed in her house.
Helpless, the woman, Amina Khatoon, begged to collect the required money and finally got a toilet built.
Though they didn't help her, but the district administration felicitated Amina on Sunday for her efforts.
Bihar is at the bottom as far as eradicating open defecation is concerned.
