The toilets may never be found — though the administration has GPS-tagged photographs of each of them — but the government aims to recover every paisa spent on them. It’s a reminder of the toilet door scam unearthed in Guna district in 2017, where the iron doors of 42,000 toilets were built 10kg lighter, leading to siphoning of crores...'
