Well,I am not being able to upload photos. My obeservations: 1) First of all cleaning people should enjoy their job and they themselves should be neat and clean.We need to improve the standard of cleaning people. 2.They should be owners of modern cleaning vehicles ,I have seen beautiful three wheelers equipped with dust bin,broom,brush,etc are carried by such cleaners abroad 3.Cleaning has to be on daily basis 4.Attractive and regularly cleaned dust bin in every 50 meters 5.A clean police force

why do we see garbage normally on streets and not in front of residential houses ....its because everyone(well most of them) have dustbins in their house and waste generated will be disposed properly .but when people go out they will be forced to throw them on the streets because of absence of bins . so please make sure there are two bins (one for plastic/dry and other for food and stuff and a possible third for electronics waste) for 200 metre radius if not 100 meter atleast in major cities

In big cities there is problem of shortage of drinking water as well as problem of disposal of Sewerage. This is bound to grow further with societies coming up near every economic activity centre. Each individual in the house is consuming 15-20 litters perday for bathing and similar activities and also consuming another 20 liter in the Flush to flush out the natures call. The total consumption can be reduced to half in the following way.

Make segregation of waste compulsory in all schools colleges, residents and offices.....keep a dustbin box for every 10 houses or one apartment...and ask the people to throw particular wastes (paper, plastics/food waste) on particular day in a week. all above tasks should be made mandatory.
