Over half of India poos without a loo



638 million Indians have no access to Toilets: WHO-Unicef Report

New Delhi : This is one world No.1 tag India can be ashamed about. Indians comprised 58% of all people across the world who regularly defecated in the open in 2008. That's more than half the Indian population, a WHO-Unicef report said. While 18% of urban India indulged in the practice, the percentage was as high as 69% in rural parts of the country.
