The Haryana Government on Wednesday issued directions for arranging special shows of Akshay Kumar starrer Toilet: Ek Prem Katha for all village sarpanches to push efforts towards cleanliness.
“State Development and Panchayats Minister O P Dhankar directed all the district development and panchayat officers to arrange special shows of movie Toilet: Ek Prem Katha for all the village sarpanches in their respective districts,” an official spokesman told The Indian Express.
He said this decision has been taken to further sensitize the representatives of Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) towards cleanliness. The movie, which highlights the issue of open defecation in rural India has crossed 89.95 crores within five days of its release. It is said to be inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi led Swachh Bharat Abhiyan campaign.
The movie is a satirical take on a battle against the age-old tradition of open defecation in the country. From the panchayat to the sanitation department, from the role of the government to the superstitions of the villagers, from scams to the ethos, from first love to a matured romance.
