the law has banned the use of dash latrine​

Answer 1

Answer:

Manual scavenging is a term used mainly in India for "manually cleaning, carrying, disposing of, or otherwise handling, human excreta in an insanitary latrine or in an open drain or pit".[1] Manual scavengers usually use hand tools such as buckets, brooms and shovels. The work is regarded as a caste-based, dehumanizing practice. The workers have to move the excreta, using brooms and tin plates, into baskets, which they carry to disposal locations sometimes several kilometers away.[2] These sanitation workers, called "manual scavengers", rarely have any personal protective equipment. The term Manual scavenging differs from the stand alone term 'Scavenging which refers to the act of sorting though and picking from discarded waste[3] In Gaborone, Botswana, as in other large cities in the developing world, members of the community try to make a living by engaging in landfill scavenging.[4] Scavenging is one of the oldest economic activities. The quantities of waste generated and the materials contained in trash are different in different parts of the world, and change over time. Scavengers usually collect from the streets ,dumpsites, or landfills. They collect re-usable and recyclable material that can be included into the economy's production process.[5]
