open defecation
Ihsan sb, open defecation should be stopped at all. because it creates solid waste problems in the living environments for all the creatures. Secondly, pit latrines are not a sustainable solution to control open defecation, it contaminates the ground water sources as well if used for a long time. Pour flush latrines inside a house is best for everything, that also take care of dignity and privacy of everyone.
