Are we Indians culturally unhygienic?
Wednesday 13th, August 2008

There is always this talk what we can do for our country but sometimes I think that there are lot of thing which we should stop doing to make us a better country and society. Like spitting on road. .. stop eating at roadside stalls… teach lesson to our Mithaiwalas who play with lives of so many people… stop playing with toxic colors… stop making the walls dirty…

Sometimes I ask to myself if we are culturally unhygienic? It is necessary that we start behaving in some responsible manner. We need to respect our life as humans which is the greatest gift of nature to us. India really need a campaign to spread awareness for a Hygienic lifestyle.( Believe me , it’s more important than many hate campaigns going on in India.) I think this is need and responsibility of most of the Indians.

But yes, I also admit that it is really diificult to escape from the smell of tempting PaniPuri stall. Is my mouth watering?

We can eat outside, but we must make sure that the vendor has appropriate arrangements for disposal of waste around his stall. We can definitely get people to stop spitting on the roads, and converting the pavements into public toilets. Easier said than done, I guess. But every little move counts.
