There is no denying the fact that good sanitation and hygiene in our washrooms directly impact our health. The availability and proper use of water is a crucial factor that enables clean public toilets and in effect, good health among the population. There is a pressing need for innovative solutions that can address the issue and ensure clean toilets for users, while minimizing water use. On World Water Day this year, Hindustan Unilever in association with Startup India, Invest India and AGNIi, principal scientific advisor to govt of india and Toilet Board Coalition, launched the Grand Water Saving Challenge to make this dream a reality. Most toilets consume 6 litres or more water in a single flush. HUL's Grand Water Challenge aims to inspire innovators and youth from across the country to come forth and design an efficient flush system that will enable the public toilet to discharge its function optimally while consuming no more than 2.5 litres of water.
