Chaitali had received a sanitation loan. She said, "My husband fixes stones, he works himself and sometimes for others as well. I don't do any work. I have always stayed in this place-that is after I got married. We had a toilet before, but it was unstable. We had a kaccha toilet before. When I came to this home after marriage, the old toilet was there already. We accumulated two loan amounts and savings to make this new toilet. We fixed a septic tank. The plastering is still left on the new toilet, the roof is completed. We haven't yet started using this new toilet, the work is not complete. We are still using the old toilet. The septic tank was fixed two years ago. The walls and the roof of the toilet were started 6 months ago."
