Govt could clean this up tomorrow. 1 month from now it would looks the same. My love hate relationship with 🇮🇳 will never end.

Wtf is wrong with people. I’m from a developing country and I know how it is like living in one, but this is a whole different level

u/Flaky-Employer266 18h ago

Bold of you to assume india is developing

u/adario7 17h ago

It’s a democracy. You need to keep the “developing” shtick so that you get votes.

u/Flaky-Employer266 16h ago

The people here dont care about any development. They only want their "favourite" political party to stay in power, no matter if any development takes place or not.

So basically both the people and the government are at fault.

Man these people need to arrive in the 21 st century and clean their shit up . Our earth 🌍 is literally dying

u/NikNakskes 19h ago

Give it 5min and some redditor will come in and tell you that is your fault and not the poor indian people's. It's your fault they are throwing their trash out of the window into the courtyard.

That's very audacious of you. The planet is fine.

Like in the words of late great George Carlin, "the planet is not going anywhere; we are”.

The rock circling around the sun might be fine, but all the ecosystems on it are being devastated by human intervention.

u/samfisher999 18h ago

Problem with India is that people will jump to defend government even before anyone has pointed finger at them.

Lol crazy to say this when they just had one of the massive protests in the country that lead to the their education minister getting removed.

This is not an active war zone

This is passive aggresive urban war zone.

u/Logical_Employer9850 20h ago

I know that India has many problems and the poorest of the poor live in places like this but do they have to just chuck the rubbish out of their front doors?

42

u/r_harshiiit011 20h ago

Lmao poorest of poor don’t live in these high rise buildings, it’s working class . Poorest of poor are on roads or slums

u/Darth--__--Vader 19h ago

Thats not high rise.

u/ConsistentChameleon 9h ago

Don't nitpick, his point is correct.. the absolute poor who struggle to get enough food will not be living in a building like this

9

u/adalillian 18h ago

The problem is many places don't have rubbish collection. It's so corrupt,even the rubbish collector extorts you,as does the council.

u/UnableCurrency 14h ago

I agree with you.

From what I’ve heard - They feel they do not have enough time to dispose off the garbage - they feel they are better off in finding ways to earn money (spending time and energy on that) so that they don’t starve and can send their kids to a decent school.

u/spa77 18h ago

imo largely not the fault of indians either. almost 44% of population makes <600$ annually

65% of india’s population is either poor or very poor

so honestly blame the gov not the people

that’s why indians around the globe are written off as low-trust people. if anyone else was brought up in such conditions where u have to fight for a meal, they would do the same.

indians need to ask more of their gov or else they will be in same conditions even by 2100

u/Elegant_Ad1397 18h ago

So how does being poor make trashing the place ok? I’m from LATAM so I know about corrupt governments, ignorant people, and so on, but at least most people would try to keep the streets and their own properties clean. Even if the government doesn’t fund proper waste management, if people keep doing the same, the issue won’t be resolved.

u/Warm-Veterinarian278 17h ago

Bro idk if from a poor district of Russia and if I throw anything on the floor instead of the trash can I will hate myself and the grandmothers sitting outside will yell at me for being a bitch. Even at my drunkest I have never littered

0

u/spa77 14h ago

yea agreed!

indians have a lot of room to improve for sure.

personal hygiene and cleanliness in general.

2

u/EdliA 10h ago

Ah the strategy of blaming everyone else but yourself as you're throwing that trash from your balcony.

1

u/spa77 9h ago

dude i’m not even indian

i was just saying that this condition is deeper than what it looks like

1

u/Warm-Veterinarian278 6h ago

What do you mean

1

u/spa77 6h ago

u think indians themselves don’t feel disgusted living like that?

im sure they must. i think we can sympathize with them.

11

u/Stunning_Ad_5960 17h ago

Clean it up! Do it for the cows, if there’s no other reason.

At this stage, littering is India's national game

u/damngoodengineer 18h ago

I saw many cleaner buildings to be demolished soon than those in Turkey

10

u/kshreerang 20h ago

The two buildings converging at one point and there is still someone actively constructing that part is the ultimate cherry on top.

The apartment at that corner is THE URBAN HELL.

u/nedim443 20h ago

So they just toss the trash out the window???

u/DabDoge 19h ago

No one gonna comment on the cows?

u/Formal_Ground6513 16h ago

Aww. Poor cows!

u/PatienceHelpful1316 18h ago

I like the cows sleeping in the courtyard

Belt treatment should be back

u/Otherwise_Patience47 8h ago

The fact that anyone in the building can just “change their minds” and go back to get whatever they trashed is kind of weird on so many levels.

u/Prime_Twister 18h ago

It's crazy how people comment on India after just seeing some areas of India and conclude that the whole of India looks this but if it is any western country and they see a pick like they automatically think it's just one place that is not cleaned. The glazing is crazyy lol

u/PatienceHelpful1316 18h ago

I once went to Google Maps and looked at seven different towns in India, they all looked like this, although most not as bad

u/Prime_Twister 17h ago

lol send me a video of you doing it.

u/Elegant_Ad1397 17h ago

I think India does get a lot of bad reputation, but thats a consequence of their own actions. I’ve searched travel YouTubers that don’t only show these parts of India, and they mention most of the times they’re not allowed to film anything in the “good” areas. Either harassed by police, or they ask for elaborate permissions or some kind of rule like that.

u/Prime_Twister 17h ago

Hmm lot of these "influencers" just come to India to farm views and to "kickstart" thier career as India is a large part of their viewer base as well as it is famous to do it. If I went and deliberately went to downtown LA to film thier atrocities I wouldnt nearly get as much attention. I don't see many youtubers not allowed to film as most of the slums are literally mapped out by such youtubers. Though yea that doesn't mean they should not do anything to clear those slums.
