Goa mulling a ban on open defecation
Goa Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar on Sunday said Goa could be the first state to ban open defecation. There are some places where toilets are yet to be constructed and once that is done, open defecation would cease to exist here, he added. He claimed that the BJP-led state government has proved that the cleanliness issue can be handled positively.
