GHMC launched two she-toilets (eToilets tailor-made for women) in Charminar on Friday.

GHMC Commissioner Dr.Janardhan Reddy, Mayor Bontu Rammohan, and MLA Pasha Khadri were present during the inauguration.

A total of five units have been installed of which two were inaugurated on Friday.

The organization is planning to set up about 26 eToilets at several historical places including Golconda during phase I.

Electronic toilets – manufactured by Trivandrum-based Eram Scientific Solutions – are modular, pre-fabricated public toilets integrated with user-friendly interfaces to ensure cleanliness and hygiene. She-toilets are additionally equipped with napkin vending machines and incinerators to dispose the used napkins.

The eToilets are incorporated with a full-cycle approach in sustainable sanitation by integrating electrical, mechanical and web-mobile technologies which control the entry, usage, cleaning with remote monitoring capabilities.
