A newly-wed woman in a village in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh recently left her husband's home because the house had no toilet.
Anita Narre returned eight days later after her husband, a daily wage worker, built one with savings and aid from villagers.
An NGO announced a $10,000 reward for Mrs Narre for her "brave" decision and forcing her husband to build a toilet.
More than half a billion Indians still lack access to basic sanitation. Full story...
