this is for all our new technocrats to ponder over. They should invent some method to dispose off the solid human waste without harming / or causing minimum damage to atmosphere.
In news today from Ghitorini New Delhi - 5 scavengers have died and fifth struggling for life- due to suffocation while cleaning a "harvest water" tank!

IMHO Jagdishji, any thing that is in plenty, loses value. This is an undeniable law of economics. Unfortunately, it applies to human lives too. A burgeoning population makes manual labor cheaper than automation/mechanisation and is preferred because of low costs. Countries with low population densities have mechanised everything from sweeping homes to managing traffic; just because they cannot afford to shift their humanpower away from more important jobs. Not so with our country. As long as we do not control our population explosion, human beings will be available and ready to be employed for such degrading jobs; and they will be employed. Every problem in this country, be it Employment, Traffic, Sanitation or Education - boils down to a very large population struggling with limited resources.
