New Delhi: Smelly airport bathrooms could soon be a thing of the past.
The civil aviation ministry is planning to use the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan
announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on October 2 to ensure a
future in which people don't have to hold their noses while using the
facilities at airports.
Cleanliness at various airports managed by the state-run Airports Authority of India became a concern for the ministry, after several members of Parliament raised a stink about deplorable hygiene.
The civil aviation ministry then conducted surprise checks across airports in the country to see if service standards were being followed. The inspection kicked off with Chennai airport where hygiene was found to be less than desirable. Civil aviation minister Ashok Gajapati Pusapati Raju gave the airport authority a month to clean up its act.
