3. Total. The whole entire country. There are 15 in the entire geographical region. If you travel there bring toilet paper. Be prepared to use the sidewalk or any available flat surface. If you must use and uneven surface make sure the downhill side is away from you. Do not poo up hill!

Very good questiong as nobody cared in this field , either they are politicians or administrators!!!
In India, public toilet facilities are few and far between, and those that are there should not be ventured into. Take every opportunity you can to use a clean a toilet in places such as hotels and restaurants. Make this a habit wherever you go.
In many places still , manual operations are going on.Manual scavenging" is manual removal of excreta (Night soil) from "dry toilets.
In India, 700 million people and 120 million households have no access to public or private toilets. Fifty million bucket toilets are cleaned by half a million “scavengers”. This has led to atmospheric pollution, health hazards and a class of people who clean up the excreta of others. To address this situation, Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak, a social worker, environmentalist and founder of the Sulabh International Social Service Organization, developed the technology of a twin-pit, pour-flush toilet known as “Sulabh Shauchalaya”, of which one million have been constructed. This environment friendly technology provides on-site disposal with no smell and soil pollution, and it conserves water. Through this development, there has been a massive change in the attitude and behaviour of people towards sanitation.
Indians now readily pay user charges in some 5,500 Sulabh public toilets. Biogas production from human excreta in 100 public toilets and its various uses, e.g. lighting, cooking, etc. and the use of effluent as rich fertilizer is one of his hallmark contributions. To the biogas plant is attached the Sulabh effluent plant, whereby water discharged is made colourless, odourless and pathogen-free, fit for discharge into any water-body, promoting a better and healthier environment. In both the technologies, there is production of organic nutrient-rich fertilizer and re-use and recycling of waste matter.
In a country with about one billion people, the sanitation implications are enormous
With no toilets in many schools, girls often quit rather than risk being seen relieving themselves outdoors. Others, also through modesty, choose not to relieve themselves, which causes infections and illness. And that is just one example of how lack of toilets hinders social and economic growth.
Recently I visited one of the best engg colleges in India, M/s Bannari Amman Institute of Technology in Sathyamangalam and in the long stretch of straight classroom corrodors there existed on two sides toilets for girls and boys for every 50 feet and they were kept with highest hygiene.
But how many schools and coleges have such facilities ?
How the Education departments in India permit such shools and revive their licences . They recieve enough money and do not care about the amenties.
It is really difficult to provide the statitstics of public toilets in India.

There may be many public toilets, but I dont think there will be many which are clean & fit for public use.
