I did not know whether it should be in chit-chat, joke, or politics category. So it is GD.

Those not having a toilet in their home will not be allowed to contest panchayat or urban local body elections in Bihar.


Announcing this at a World Toilet Day function on Tuesday, chief minister Nitish Kumar said the state government will bring the necessary amendments to the Bihar Panchayati Raj Act and other statutes governing the elections of urban bodies to raise public awareness about the benefits of toilets in houses.

The chief minister said the panchayats that achieve the 100% target of constructing toilets will be given the Nirmal Gram Panchayat prize of Rs 5 lakh each. The Nirmal Prakhand award will carry Rs25 lakh in prize for blocks for conducting a cleanliness drive. :laugh::cheer2:
