Blind Spot ( toilets )


In the west you are fined if you do the job in the public places, here in India you pay to enter the public toilets and not fined otherwise.

India and the toilet have a long and proud history. The earliest example of a flush toilet dates back to Indus Valley Civilisation (3300–1700 BCE) where every house had a flush toilet connected to a complicated city-wide sewage works.
