The Indian Railways needs to buy 3,350 truckloads of cow dung at â¹42 crore in 2018 to "recharge" malfunctioning bio-toilets, according to an IndiaSpend report based on CAG data. This is required for activating degradation by adding bacteria. Last year, nearly two lakh defects were found in 25,000 bio-toilets, with the ministry saying the malfunctioning issue is because of misuse.
