Unsanitary Streets of Inida, Waste Removing Starts

In the streets of Mumbai, according to CNN, in areas where there is no flush system waste removers started to clean up the waste or "night soil".  The streets of India are scattered with human excretion and the government has hired waste removers to sanitize them. Studies show that at least 50% of India's population does not have access to toilets. People who are considered diseased and the lowest caste in India's caste system, untouchables, are considered to be in the most danger. Still, the workers and people of India have a long road ahead of making India a more healthier, sanitary place to live.
