The safari bus had entered into the park and a few minutes in, the guide stood up, held his hand up to signal silence and began to speak in a low, serious voice- "Just about a month ago, two forest rangers had been out for their daily rounds near the periphery of the Dhikala zone
India isn’t dirty because people can’t clean, or lack civic sense. India is dirty because people genuinely believe it’s not their job. That belief comes from caste.
And that belief is not accidental. It comes straight from caste conditioning drilled into people for generations.
Caste in India was never just about hierarchy. It was about assigning work. And cleaning got pushed to the bottom. So now even today, people carry that same mindset without even realizing it. I am not the one who cleans.
You go to a park, people will eat, throw garbage, walk away. Not because they’re unaware. Their brain literally doesn’t even register that they should pick it up. Why. Because somewhere deep inside, they think cleaning is a ‘lower’ person’s job.
Same everywhere - Hill stations, rivers, tourist spots. Trash it and leave. Not laziness. Conditioning.
Compare this with somewhere like Singapore - You eat at a place, people clean their own table. They carry tissues, wipe it, and throw garbage properly. Why? Because they don’t think it’s someone else’s job.
Even Sri Lanka feels cleaner than India!
And then we pretend it’s a Swachh Bharat problem. You can run a hundred Swachh Bharat campaigns. Put dustbins every ten steps. Nothing changes. Because the problem is not infrastructure. It’s identity.
Dear Mr PM @AmitShah@narendramodi@CMOGuj Please kindly visit the Ellora Park-Gorwa road near Acharya hospital and look at the pathetic condition of the road. એક મહિના થી આવી હાલત છે રસ્તા ની. આવતી વખતે ચૂંટણી રેલી આ રસ્તે થી કાઢવા વિનંતી, જે થી રસ્તા નું સમારકામ રાતોરાત થઈ જાય.
Dear Mr Pedro, Mr Modi, @narendramodi@sanchezcastejon Welcome to Baroda. As is the norm ahead of every political visit, the city, which is otherwise dusty, dirty and riddled with potholes, has been cleaned and decked up. But this cleanliness is only limited to the route and...
there are no public garbage bins for people to dispose their waste in, it is mindlessly thrown outside OUR houses and makes our alley dirty.
Dear @narendramodi Please kindly accept our request and take your dear friend @sanchezcastejon on a garbage sightseeing tour @VMCVadodara
@amazonIN I paid extra for faster delivery as it was meant to be a gift, agent reached my place without the parcel. Amazon asks me to contact carrier but refuses to provide any contact number, info about delivery agent or location of the final delivery hub. ??????
The giant pliosaur skull is a truly fantastic discovery. I hope you enjoyed watching "Attenborough and the Giant Sea Monster".
Pictured here is Phil Jacobs the day he spotted the enormous snout tip. Look at that grin! He deserves a huge amount of credit and kudos.
