At the bottom of the sign is written 'Public Toilet' in English. According to the party, the public can use the toilet on the basis of the sign.
As per the agreement, about 200 toilets will come into operation. In which 100 have been marked and others are also being marked. In collaboration with business organizations that have shown interest in bringing it into public use, Kathmandu Metropolitan City is about to bring 250 toilets into public use.
