After around 16 hours of travelling, I landed in Guwahati Lokapriya Gopith Bordoloi airport and before heading for baggage claim, I decided to pay a quick visit to the ladies loo in preparation for the next hour drive before I reach home. On opening the toilet door, I could see water running all over the floor, the cleaning broom on the middle of the floor, none of the toilets were particularly in the best hygienic condition and there were no rolls available in any of the toilets. On top, toilets were so high that for normal height Indian women, it’s impossible to sit comfortably let alone the children. Looking into all these, I changed my mind thinking that I am better off not using the airport toilets and wait until I reach home. What I found surprisingwas that these toilets are exclusively for passengers’ usage and staffs are employed to keep them in good condition. Then why are we failing?What about tourists who visit Assam for the first time? We’ve all heard the proverb saying ‘First impression is the last impression’ and this is a vital point to consider when we as a state wish to attract tourists.
