The stark choice facing many people in rural India India’s ambitious sanitation drive has created a health hazard, with many toilets built cheek by jowl with family water supplies The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/global- development/2016/jul/25/india-sanitation- drive-toilet-or-safe-drinking-water-stark-choice A hand pump with a cracked base in Dhenkenal, Odisha. Poorly maintained pumps are vulnerable to contamination from above ground as well as from nearby leach pits. Photographs: Priyanka Pulla Global development is supported by About this content Priyanka Pulla in Puri Monday 25 July 2016 05.00 BSTLast modified on Wednesday 3 August 201615.35 BST June in Odisha state’s Puri district, and the mercury is hitting 39C. The monsoon is still days away but, when it comes, the Mahanadi river could flood low-lying villages, as it often has done. One such village is Aaruha, a network of congested huts surrounded by vast rice fields. Chaibi Swain, 52, lives here with her husband, a rice farmer. Her home is little different to the rest of Aaruha’s low-rise dwellings, but it has a toilet, which puts her among a small minority in rural Odisha. Eight out of nine people in Odisha’s villages do not use toilets, instead defecating in the open, leaving them vulnerable to diseases. The Swains, with their tiny toilet, which empties into a leach pit – a hole in the ground used to compost faeces when there is no sewage system – are the face of progress. There is a problem, however. The leach pit is next to the household’s drinking- water source, a tube well. Water so close to a leach pit is vulnerable to contamination from faecal germs, since bacteria, viruses and protozoa can travel through soil. Worse, when the monsoon comes and the Mahanadi overruns its banks, the groundwater levels in Aaruha rise, making the contamination worse. The Swains’ toilet could actually be a health risk. FacebookTwitterPinterest This toilet with a leach pit in Puri has been built next to a hand pump, making contamination likely They aren’t the only ones whose backyard toilet is a threat to the water supply. As the Swachch Bharat Mission (SBM) – India’s ambitious campaign to stop open defecation by 2019– gains pace, about 1.3m leach-pit toilets have been built in Odisha alone. In districts such as Ganjam, Balasore and Puri, these pits are often built without safeguards against contamination, say the NGOs working with the government. “It is quite alarming, because if this problem is not addressed at this time, we are building sites of contamination all around,” says Devdeep Saha, a research associate at the sanitation NGOFriend in Need Trust. The safeguards in coastal districts such as Puri, which have high groundwater tables and are prone to flooding, include keeping a 10-metre distance between water sources and leach pits, raising the top of pits above the ground so that flood water does not enter, and sealing the bottom of pits to prevent pathogens escaping. But villagers who build their own toilets in return for funds from the mission often ignore these safeguards. Can $15m worth of toilets finally clean up the Ganges? Read more The reasons are many. First, many households in congested villages do not have the space to build toilets and tube wells far apart. Harendranath Pradhan, a government sanitation engineer in Odisha’s Balasore district, says this is the main reason for guidance being ignored. Even though his job is to ensure toilets are properly built, Pradhan says this isn’t always possible. “We tell the beneficiary to maintain a distance from the water source. But they say they don’t have the land. So we build the toilet, because we have to meet targets,” he says. India is not yet meeting its mission goals. Only about 19m toilets have been builtacross rural India, meaning another 92m are needed over the next three years to meet the 2019 target. Vivek Sabnis, who previously worked for the Bangalore-based sanitation NGO Arghyam, says: “Unfortunately, everybody is pushing for quantity over quality.” FacebookTwitterPinterest The characteristic pink toilets built across rural Odisha under the Swachch Bharat Mission Odisha isn’t the only state that faces a threat to its water supplies from new toilets. Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Jharkhand also have badly built toilets, according to Saha. This means that, as coverage grows, contamination may worsen. A study in the journal Environmental Science and Technology in April found that certain diarrhoea-causing protozoa can travel 150 metres or more in the high groundwater of Puri to contaminate even deep tube wells, which are thought safer than shallow tube wells and open ponds. The study says full latrine coverage in high water table areas would reduce contamination in open ponds, but increase it in tube wells. Marion Jenkins, lead author of the study and an environmental health researcher at the University of California in Davis, says recommended safeguards may reduce contamination a little, but won’t eliminate it. “Drinking-water aquifers are already seriously polluted with faecal protozoal pathogens from the existing stock of latrines in rural Puri,” she says. Snakebites, diarrhoea and violence: why India's rural women need toilets Read more This means that unless the existing latrines are pulled down, and new ones built differently, pollution will remain. Another study, published in January, found tube wells in Bihar to be contaminated by faecal pathogens about 18% of the time, when they weren’t far enough from pit toilets. This study was done in summer, and the authors predict contamination would increase during monsoon. None of this means India should panic and abandon pit toilets, says Sandy Cairncross, an environmental health researcher at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Improved toilet coverage is likely to benefit people much more than it hurts them, he points out, adding that it would be better to provide piped water to villages, instead of relying on tube wells and ponds. Another solution is to train villagers to monitor the quality of their toilets, instead of relying on government officials to do so, says Sujoy Mojumdar, a former SBM director who is now with Unicef India. The system of a government official inspecting toilets before disbursing money doesn’t work because toilet users do not feel ownership, he argues. Village teams already exist in some states, he says, “but it is still a rare example and not widespread”. CITIES » CHENNAI CHENNAI, January 22, 2016 Updated: January 22, 2016 05:39 IST Eight TN women to have lunch with President today Ads by Google DEEPA H. RAMAKRISHNAN COMMENT · PRINT · T T inShare29 The names of the women were among the 200 short-listed by jury members under 20 categories. At least eight women from Tamil Nadu will have lunch with President Pranab Mukherjee at Rashtrapati Bhavan on Friday . They are among winners of the #100Women Achievers’ Contest organised by the Ministry of Women and Child Development, in collaboration with Facebook to recognise and acknowledge women who are making a difference in their communities across the country. Their names were among the 200 short-listed by jury members under 20 categories. Facebook users then voted 100 women from the 200. And they are the women who have been working at various levels to empower women. Chennai-based artist N. Swarnalatha says each incident of woman abuse brings her pain. “It affects me mentally and I translate the anguish into art. All the proceeds I get from selling my paintings goes towards supporting women,” she said. Academician Shyama Ramani is trying her hand at improving sanitation in Kameshwaram, a fishing hamlet in Nagapattinam district through her organisation Friend In Need India Trust. “Now that we have constructed toilets and the people are using them, I am looking for a sustainable model to keep the village clean,” she said.

The 2008 Mumbai Attack and Press Nationalism: A Content Analysis of Coverage in the New York Times, Times of London, Dawn, and the Hindu (132 pp.) Director of Thesis: Joseph P. Bernt This study examines the New York Times, Times of London, Hindu, and Dawn coverage of the 2008 Mumbai attack. Since the U.S. and Britain had considerable interests in South Asia, the study used the framework of press nationalism to analyze the coverage. A content analysis of the coverage in the four newspapers suggests national interests were at work. The debate over the war and issues like religious unrest were different in the four newspapers. The Western press was unequivocal in condemning the war option; the coverage also reflected an agreement on issues like Kashmir and the War on Terror.
