Uttar Pradesh Panchayati Raj Minister Bhupendra Chaudhary on Monday said the Swachh Bharat Mission is a priority for the state government and the construction of community toilets will ensure that no one is deprived of the basic facility.

Giving a detailed account of the works done by his department, Chaudhary said the construction of community toilets at public places is continuing to ensure that no one was deprived of this basic facility.

Referring to the Swachh Bharat Mission, the minister said it was started in 2014 and on coming to power in the state in 2017, the Yogi Adityanath government included it in its top priorities.
