Any sources for that? I've seen firsthand in many muslim slums in Mumbai that practice open defecation. People shit right outside and around Sulabh sauchalayas.

这说法有根据吗？我亲眼看见很多在孟买的msl在贫民窟内露天排便。

People simply don't want toilets. There are too many superstitions concerning hygiene in this country. There are millions conditions to check before doing simple things like going to the barber or even cutting your nails.
Toilets are considered dirty. People won't clean their own toilets, because only "certain" people are meant for that. You aren't even allowed to touch already dirty things like cash notes with your "toilet" hand. If you're a leftie people will scoff at you for eating with your left hand.
Pehle remove all these customs that are holding us back.

人们只是不想要厕所。这个国家有太多关于卫生的迷信了。在做一些简单的事情例如剪头发甚至剪指甲前，要检查数百万种情况。

厕所被认为是肮脏的。人们不想去清洁自己的厕所，因为只有“某些”的人才会想做这些。你甚至不被允许用“厕所”的手去触碰脏的东西，例如钞票；如果你是左撇子，你还会因为用左手吃饭而被嘲笑。

应该消除那些阻碍我们进步的习俗。

As Nehru once said: "No country or people who are slaves to dogma and dogmatic mentality can progress, and unhappily our country and people have become extraordinarily dogmatic and little-minded."

就像尼赫鲁曾说的：“任何成为教条和教条主义的奴隶的国家或人民都难以进步，不幸的是，我们的国家和人民已经变得极度教条化和没有思想了。”

And he wrote it in 1926!

这是他1926年写的！

It doesn't matter when he wrote it, the thing is that he wrote the truth. What difference does it make whether he wrote it in 1926 or now?

他什么时候写的不重要，重要的是他写的是事实。他写于1926年还是现在有什么区别吗？

The World Bank had a report on this issue a few years ago. Basically the problem is not one of resources but of culture. A lot of toilets have been built, but they are not used due to caste issues.
The problem is more a cultural one than one of infrastructure. Bangladesh has almost no outdoor defecation despite being a poorer nation.
As much as it hurts people admitting it, it's a problem within Hinduism(caste) which is causing this. It's not a problem that will be solved by money alone.

几年前世界银行发表关于这个问题的报告。基本上，问题不在于资源，而在于文化。许多厕所已经建成了，但因为种姓问题没有被使用。

这问题与其说是建设问题，倒不如说是文化问题。尽管孟加拉是个穷国，但几乎没有露天排便的。

尽管这伤害了承认它的人，但这是印度教（种姓）导致的问题，不是单靠钱就能解决的。

Forget sewage system. In 10yrs from now there will be drinking water crisis.

忘了污水处理系统吧，从现在算起十年内就会有饮用水危机了。

The two are related. If you pollute the water you have and you don’t clean it, you will not have clean water.

这两个是相关的，如果你污染了你所有的水，又不能清洁它，那你就不会有干净的水了。

So you want proper sanitation in India because you fear the taunts of Pakistani or ?

所以你想让印度有良好的公共卫生，只是因为害怕巴基斯坦人和的嘲笑？
