How can we effectively solve the cleanliness and hygiene problem in our country?

We cannot deny the fact that Indian cities, towns and villages are extremely filthy. The problem is not just about it being an eyesore but also a major public health and environmental issue.

We know the reasons behind it, it is a combination of poor civic behaviour on part of the public and poor waste management, sanitation infrastructure and rules enforcement on part of the government. If we want to solve this problem, we need to address these two issues as both reinforce each other.

What can be done to solve this serious problem?

Development Has Entered the Mud 🥁

Apparently, Viksit Bharat has arrived just not on the road to this school. 😂

Kids are wading through mud and floodwater just to reach class, while the giant Modi image looks like it’s about to announce, “Mitron, please admire this world-class infrastructure.”

Nothing says development quite like turning a school commute into an Olympic mud-wrestling event.

At this point, the potholes deserve a government award for Outstanding Contribution to Nation Building.

We are ashamed of calling our guests home": Burari residents protest over abysmal road conditions after 5+ years of neglect. Is this the reality of our capital's infrastructure everywhere?

Stumbled upon this report about Burari residents staging a protest this Sunday over completely destroyed main roads that have remained in this pathetic state for over five years.

One resident summed it up best: "We are ashamed of calling our guests home."

It got me thinking, this isn't just an isolated Burari issue. Itna buri halat chal rahi hai across so many localities, not just in Delhi, but urban areas everywhere. Potholes, waterlogging, zero maintenance, and endless apathy from local authorities while taxpayers deal with daily nightmare commutes

Central Delhi, India.

If the state government actuslly relax Fsi, more such marvellous high rises can be constructed.

  1. Enhancing Skyline

  2. Making infrastructure and public transport utilization more efficient.

  3. Affordable Housing (Since current prices keeps the income to housing ratio 15:1, thanks to current prices.)

  4. And simply acknowledging a reality, Indian population density is same as western china, japan, south korea, taiwan) and the land doesn't allow horizontal sprawl & sub-urbs for 1.4 billion people.

- that also when Ganga basin (where the majority population lies) is one of the MOST FERTILE SOIL. (Enough fertile that if you throw seeds of cerels on soil [(even in a populated, polluted, dense neigborhood)] by next rain, plants just POP-OUT, that is a serious flex compared to all the countries globally, because NATURE never blessed them with such ease of life & blessed land.)

  1. And It will look more beutiful with more such high-rises.
