India's government Wednesday announced a nationwide scheme to check whether people are using toilets as part of a cleanliness drive championed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Sanitary inspectors will go door-to-door to "check and verify the use of toilets" with mobile phones, tablets or iPads and upload the results onto a website in "real time", a government press release said. "Earlier, the monitoring was done only about the construction of toilets, but now the actual use of toilets will be ascertained," it said. Modi announced the cleanliness drive in his Independence Day speech in August, pledging a toilet in every household by 2019.
