The great Indian Litterbug-My Small Take



India is a country where we have numerous laws and more than those laws we have even more followers but fortunately to say we all have unique talent and as per our birth traits we have habit of making our own laws in our own sense. Well it’s not that we are not literate; currently 60% population is well aware of the bookish knowledge and we all call them “Bookworms. When these bookworms try to implement their psychology in our real society we tell them-- “Abey Tu Rehne De” or sometimes- “You nerd…. Ch**** is back” so somewhere they also turn or dilute their personality with the majority of litterbugs.

“Station is you property, keep the station and coaches clean, do not throw wrappers or fruits etc. on the platform or inside the train. Please cooperate with us and keep the premises clean, Thank you.”

Vikrant- Haahaha- Hey, Ankit station is your property then let’s uses it properly

Ankit- Oh fine then let’s take this fan first so atleast we can sell it for 500 rupees, Not bad... hahaha!!! 

This was the scenario I saw when I was traveling in Borivali fast train with my husband. Those irritating young college going students were making lots of noise and continuously were making fun of railway announcements. I am quite aggressive in nature so couldn’t stop myself and told “excuse me, station is your property and as you said you want to sell some fans of this coach just for 5oo rupees so my humble suggestion to you, do repair the third and fourth fan of this compartment as it is not working properly- after all its your property and you should use it completely ;) ;) ;)”. They just smiled at me and left the compartment. I saw some sorts of mere guilt on their face and mere shame was also present inside their mind.

Santacruz- Juhu Beach, Mumbai (Maharashtra):-

Momy I want to do Susu… I can’t control where to go?? Areyy…Beta… huh.. do one thing go near the see and do there. No one will say anything and won’t come to know also”. “Aur Tu Waise Bhi Bachcha Hai Koi Kuch Nahi Bolega”…. Huh like typical Indian mother she gave what an awesome suggestion to her child and when in future these children do not become law abiding citizens then we complain to thousands of things instead of our own faults.
Well, this was height and by that lady’s grace  :P  :P :P I heard it and then – 

“Beta, do one thing your Mom is carrying half empty bottle of Bisleri water so you do one thing refill your Mom’s bottle by your SUSU, no one will object it and she also won’t say anything”. “Waise Bhi Aap Unke Hi Bachche Ho, Toh Apka Susu Toh Unke Liye Gangajal Hi Hoga Na???..I replied to that child politely and humbly. Mom and her child remain succumbed for a moment and due to humiliation didn’t even prefer to have an eye contact with me.  

Save our environment and do not let these half educated people to play with it. Living in a clean environment is our birth right… :) :) :) :) raise your voice with the charm of your laugh……
