DID SOMEONE SAY SHAUCHALAY ?

Women and their needs are often misled and ignored. The concept of leisure and freedom for women is always questioned in Indian cities and men on other hand avail all the ownership and liberty. Movement of women for this reason in public places is numerically lower than that of the men. One of the basic needs in many, is the presence of a clean and facilitated toilet. It is the only space which completely separates genders, giving more private and secure space to women, disconnecting them from male sphere. It sometimes also acts as a social space for women out of their daily work.
