Cleanliness in Tier 3/4 towns – Root Causes

Dear all:

Below are the Key Issues as listed by you for the State of Cleanliness in Tier 3/4 towns in India.

Please help identify the Root Causes of these issues. Once we know them, we will work on identifying solutions through a separate post.

The objective would be to develop a comprehensive whitepaper that can be shared with Mayors/Municipal Corporations of such towns and request actions.

Many of such towns in India have heritage/history behind them and if cleaned up effectively, it can drive much more tourism and development there.

Look forward to your inputs!
Ministry of Urban Development

From many Bus/Taxi/Auto comes out black smoke in road and making air pollution, supporting by Traffic Police and Motor Vehicle officer, taking bribe more  
lack of awarness is the main reason cause of dirtyness ,some popular personalty of the concerned area/mohalla must came in group and teaches people of cleanness on regular basis. people should not think it is vmc or else job more  
Posters sticking, cattles freely crossing highways, random throwing away garbage on roads, rain drains clogged up, petty shops discarding waste on road, vendors and hawkers use roadside as kitchen, cow dung everywhere, children defecating in open near gutters & pavements, market place waste uncollected, people urinating in bus stands, on road, throwing banana peels and plastic on road, are some of the problems. more  
inviting and asking film actors, industrialists , MPs etc and ask them to pick up the ZAADU and take photos will not help or will not ignite the public to keep swach bharat. and will not make it a success. on the contrary, people are criticizing and even the media also. so the BJP should avoid such things more  
gram panchayat/taluka panchayat/municipal corporator should hold meetings at each location like moholla, society, etc. and explain the importance of swach bharat. they should also promote the prizes from funds which they get for spending. this will definitely be successful. but they should take responsibility. at present, there is no direct interaction between these officials and the voters. this official should go to meet people. to make it a success. vkshah more
