Some indians have hung their heads in shame after a Japanese woman shocked the country.  When Japanese traveler Akie Doi visited puri, Odisha, in 2022, she fell in love with the sacred city.  Ever since, she has made it her life's mission to maintain the city trash-free and clean.  Akie gets up early every day to pick up the rubbish from puri beach and the surrounding areas, even though it's a difficult work she isn't even required to do.

Her commitment demonstrates her passion for the city, and the local government has increased its efforts to keep it in good condition as a result.  “I just love doing it,” she says.  I am contributing to the upkeep of our environment even if the administration has hired cleaners to help keep the beach clean.  I encourage beachgoers to use the designated trash cans.
 
We indians must take heed, improve, and cultivate the most fundamental civic sensibilities to dispose of rubbish in the proper locations.  Seeing the terrible state of public cleaning and taking action should be our responsibility as citizens of the nation, not that of certain visitors.  The micromanagement of our garbage should be the first step in this process. If done properly on a personal level, we can bring our cities back to their former splendors and increase tourism while also raising our own standard of living.
