The toilet has a separate section for women on the ground floor and four toilet blocks are reserved for differently-abled people.

Spread across 4,000 sq. feet, the lavatory will cater to around 60,000 slum dwellers. Each family has to pay 60 per month for unlimited use.

Mumbai Regional Congress Committee (MRCC) president Bhai Jagtap inaugurated the facility on Saturday and said, "This ground-plus-one structure has 60 seats and we are going to add 28 more seats".

The BMC has also planned to set up 80 multi-utility air-conditioned mobile toilet vans at major traffic signals, but the plan has been delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
