New Delhi: On the second anniversary of the Swachh Bharat Mission, the government on Sunday named Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh as the first states to have become open defecation free (ODF) in urban areas.

...

In all, 180 and 110 cities and towns, respectively, in Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh were declared open defecation free by their chief ministers.

...

In rural India, while Sikkim, Himachal Pradesh and Kerala have achieved more than 90% of toilet construction in households, Bihar, Jammu and Kashmir and Odisha are still trailing with fewer than 30% of households with toilets.

...

Maharashtra, Kerala, Himachal Pradesh, Mizoram and other north-eastern states are to declare all urban areas as open defecation free soon.
