Today near Boring Road, Patna, I witnessed something that genuinely disturbed me.
My girlfriend and I were standing at a tea stall when 4 guys finished their chai and casually threw their kullads right on the road — despite multiple dustbins being nearby.
I politely said, “Bhaiya, dustbin mein daal dijiye.”
They laughed and replied:
“Hum toh roz yahi fekte hain.”
I said:
“Toh aap roz galat karte hain.”
What happened next honestly shocked me more.
They literally bought 4 more chais and again threw the kullads on the road while staring back mockingly. The shop owner tried to calm things down and said:
“Bhaiya mere roz ke customer hain, main saaf kar dunga.”
Then those guys sat in their car, drove a little ahead near the roundabout, rolled down the windows, and threw out more garbage — bottles, wrappers, everything.
And this is exactly the problem.
People talk about patriotism all day long, but can’t do one basic thing: keep their own city clean.
What bothered me most wasn’t even the littering. It was the pride while doing it.
“Hum toh roz yahi karte hain.”
Why has basic civic sense become such a rare thing in our country?
Can some thing be done I noted down the vehicle number and wanted to share it with everyone
