9 Civic Sense Basics for every Indian

Dear all:

We strongly recommend that every member of the circle, please print the attached 1 page resource and post it at their workplace, home, neighborhood/RWA and circulate electronically/in print to as many contacts as possible via Facebook, Twitter, Whatsapp.

Let us together create mass awareness about these 9 basics we have collectively developed.

We will get a closer to our mission of Swachh Bharat if every one of us follows these.

Lets imbibe this our self, I practice it daily, I have made my 5year old son aware and he too follows the above points, lets make a difference in our own way. I have been able to influence my maid to a small extent. WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. more  
I absolutely agree to the above mentioned 9 points to observe for cleanliness. But lets just take the case of our maids who work for us. They with their family live in one room chawls where there may be a small bathroom but no latrine. They have to go out near the railway lines or roads to attend to nature's call. How can we expect them to follow the above rules when we can't even give them a hygienic existence. First homes for the poor, even within cities, then education and proper income, only then can we expect a Swachh Bharat! Till then the above rules can only apply to the better income group. more  
The government must ban the use of plastics bags in big departmental stores or cloth stores; slowly this ban can be extended to other medium and small shops too. . We on our part can carry jute carry bags from our houses when we go to the departmental stores to buy provisions or vegetables. We can keep one or two jute or cloth bags in our vehicles so that we can use it when we do an unplanned shopping too. One of the suggestions given in the 9 points of civic sense is very important-- that of carrying a paper bag for keeping our wastes when we are on the move, instead of throwing it on the road or open places. We do these things in places like Singapore where there is a heavy fine for littering, but change 360 degrees as soon as we reach our "motherland". A big change of attitude is necessary for the success of the wonderful initiative of our PM Modiji for a 'CLEAN INDIA', AND THIS MUST COME SOON. more  
In our school days we used to have moral classes and civics as subjects which are totally lacking today. From day one the children are oriented towards CET exams and never told how to behave in the society. It should always start at the school level as children grasp it faster. Self help groups should work towards creation of awareness among the people the various factors of civic sence. more
