Experts in the field of social sanitation have suggested a change in the Union Government's policy to subsidise construction of toilet blocks as they feel that a demand driven subsidy would help in reaching the goal of sanitation for all. While the government presently provides hundred per cent subsidy to those below the poverty line for the construction of toilet blocks, experts feel that a change in poicy is now required.
