Jaipur city will now have smart restrooms for women as the part of government’s Smart City mission. The most special feature in these restrooms is that women can feed their children in here. Apart from this, the toilets and the ATM facility will also be available.

These smart toilets will be made under Phase II of the Rajasthan Urban Infrastructure Development Project (RUIDP). The government has sanctioned Rs 50 Crores for this development.

Jaipur Municipal Corporation (JMC) will construct 10 smart toilets in different areas of the city. The work of constructing smart toilets has been started at three different places already.

Smart Restroom project highlights

Under the smart city mission, PM Modi government promised to facilitate and ease the lifestyle of the citizens. On the other hand, Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje is continuously working for women’s welfare. CM Raje launched various schemes to support women in the state.

Notably, toilet facilities for women in the city are not very good at present. The number of women’s toilets is also very low. Women have to face problems due to the small and unhygienic toilets.

After the development of a smart toilet, women are likely to not face any trouble. Hence the smart restroom for women is another boon on them by CM Raje government.

• Restrooms will have a dressing room, feeding room and insulator room with women’s toilet. In the dressing room, women can change the dress.
