Kanpur, Apr 18 (ANI): A woman refused to tie the knot with a man in Kanpur city of Uttar Pradesh after he failed to get a toilet built at his residence in time for the wedding. Neha, who had to be married in a mass ceremony, pestered for the need of a toilet at the groom's house since the marriage was fixed, but the family did not keep its promise. Neha said that she was inspired to take the step by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Clean India Mission, which aims to create awareness among people for need of cleanliness at public places and use of toilets. She then got married to Sarvesh, who had a toilet at his house, at a mass wedding ceremony organised by a local Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO). Since taking office, Prime Minister Modi has repeatedly lamented the poor state of sanitation and public cleanliness in India, vowing to solve the problems during his tenure of five years.
