Remember when Twinkle Khanna tweeted about a scene from the “sequel of Toilet: Ek Prem Katha” and got trolled for it? Akshay Kumar did. So the actor decided to sponsor bio-toilets worth Rs 10 lakh at Juhu beach for the public.
Eight months after Twinkle had pointed out how her morning walk was ruined because of people defecating out in the open, Akshay, teaming up with Shiv Sena leader, Aditya Thackeray has installed loos to help resolve the defecation problem.
But according to a report in Mumbai Mirror, the BMC has said that this would only “partly solve the problem”. Many such toilets along Versova and Juhu would have to be made in order to keep the area defecation free.
“The toilets have bio-digester so there will be no stink. The toilets will bring a lot of relief to not just the local slum dwellers, but also to visitors,” said Assistant Municipal Commissioner, K-West ward, Prashant Gaikwad.
