The men and women in uniform deserve better but don't get even the basic facilities at work. Every article of this campaign by mid-day only uncovers more of the turd degree torture they undergo at police stations where the toilets are dirty, not maintained, and poorly lit. Most police stations — Kandivali, Borivli, Charkop, Dahisar, Malwani — in the North region are ISO certified (this includes among other criteria, better infrastructure) but their toilets are decrepit.

Stink is guide to toilet
The urinals at the toilet on the ground floor at Borivli police station, which mostly complainants and visitors use, are filthy. Under severe pressure, you won't need to ask anyone how to get there, because its stink will guide you. But watch out for that slippery floor. Police personnel often use the toilets on the first and second floors, which are in much better condition. But the squat toilet is shut after the pot broke. To add to these issues, the lone drinking water dispensing machine here is poorly maintained. The water spills all over and it is often shut for repairs.
