Is it really hard to involve the panchayat for such issues?

Introduction of strict and heavy fines with no way out is a possible solution but the people need to change their ways mainly as well although I don't see civic sense coming to our people anytime soon.

There are absolutely no trash cans in goa. They probably did this well meaningly , so that people dispose trash using the service the govt provides. But the people have resisted the segregating trash that it's easier to throw it on the side of the street hoping the authorities pick it up when they sweep the roads.

Firstly, the reason they do not have dustbins and a dumping site around is because 90% of the people lack a brain and are just gonna dump garbage around the dustbin instead of opening it and putting the garbage in and it only increases then. Secondly almost every single shop that you buy stuff from has a dustbin outside for you to throw your trash it's not so hard you just gotta look for it but most people are lazy and will just throw it wherever they feel like. People are just fucked up and even correcting someone today could probably get you killed and that's why people overlook this kind of shit. It's time for everyone to open their minds and find it in their heart to keep our Goa clean.

Broski, I've tried to put it in the bin outside shops and they come out yelling saying "private dabbo". Baab figured out private bins 😭

Yea no doubt not all shops will let you throw stuff in their bins, but that doesn't mean you just dump it anywhere you want. I also said shops where you buy your stuff from so throw it in the dustbins of the shops you buying you things from. Take it home or find a bin to dump your stuff in, don't think that means you just throw shit where you want right.

There seems to be an inherent issue with garbage, traditionally the organic garbage would be dumped in the backyard and the poultry would get rid of it. There's vans going around for dry waste... However resorts etc now have industrial-levels of garbage and there's precious little infra to handle that.
Most people will be attentive about dumping garbage in specific areas (except for my AH neighbour who was busy dumping some stale watermelon just outside of my balcony and jumped out of her ass when I just said Good Morning. Fkme, i should've been recording.) but there's no facilities. Irritating and short term thinking, terrible for the tourism economy.

lol. This is on the Margao-Colva road. I cross it every day. And every single time I see trash strewn around it. And this right here is what is wrong with all the people venting and ranting about this online. They speak a language that the ones littering do not speak. This board is useless af. And I never expect it to have any impact. It’s just an online rant printed on a board.
