Earlier quoted context omitted.

No that is not the link to my work. The work I referred to was the work by a local Temple and I was a 15 year old volunteer who laid bricks for toilets. Never had the big picture that time.

There is some irony in here. I know of cases where people broke up the toilets built with govt money just to sell the bricks. I am glad however, that the discussion has been less myopic than I would have otherwise expected: oh look at these poor Indians why don't we get some money and build them toilets.

Yes. The discussion around education in India however remains myopic. Lets build "free schools" for poor Indians remains the objective which has achieved very little.
