It would appear that losing that spot in the top 10 cities of the Swachh Bharat Index has really hurt the BMC’s pride, as in a bid to at least retain its open defecation free (ODF) status, the civic body on Friday went on a toilet inauguration spree. In all, 83 community as well as temporary toilets with 1,215 seats in and around prominent spots known for open defecation were inaugurated, planned on two days’ notice.
