Indian Railways — poor state of railway toilets

I frequently travel by rail. I have always wondered why the railways are not able to design a neat and functional toilet. It is a torture to use the railway toilet in a running train. The worst offender is the chain tied to the mug, it is like a serpentine creature waiting to pounce upon the user. It needs to be entangled first before making the mug straight. If one succeeds ten the tap will not work properly. The design of the cocks is such that they simply do not go up. If they go then water will be sprayed on all sides. Ones shoes and pants will become wet. Finally if some water is collected then taking the mug behind the place o[censored]se, half the water gets spit out and the remaining quantity s insufficient for use, one has to do so multiple times. The liftable seat of the toilet is always hanging on one side, making sitting on it difficult and risky. Washing ones hands in the conical bottom round sinks is another torture. The taps are so hard that making them work requires lot of effort.

When indians have reached the moon and mars, it is really difficult to understand why railway toilets can not be designed efficiently to make them user friendly. The tap cocks should have small projection on opposite sides to make them push upwards easily.in its absence it becomes difficult as wetness also makes it slippery.

Perhaps an all india competition can be held to design a user friendly toilet by the railways. Please consider the suggestion positively.

(I am convinced that no important member of the top railway hierarchy ever travels by train and if yes then they are so indifferent to the lousy state of toilets in railway comprtments)
