Two months after the government decided to hand over the running of the State-wide network of 1,000 plus Take-a-Break public toilets and refreshment centres to the Kudumbashree, the mission is awaiting a formal order in this regard.
The Kudumbashree has submitted a proposal with some tweaks to make the centres more profitable. It has suggested that the user fee be hiked to ₹5 or ₹10, on the lines of toilet facilities at the KSRTC bus-stations.
As a number of the centres at present have only toilet facilities, the Kudumbashree has proposed that cafes be added to them to bring in more profits for the beneficiary members.
