New Delhi: Picture this – One fine day you get up in the morning, fetch a bottle of water to quench your thirst, but instead of drinking it you throw it away because the bottle is filled with dirt. Next, you decide to go and brush your teeth, open the tap for water, but instead of getting water, get handful of dirt. Without waiting for a second, you instantly throw it away and clean your hands with a towel. Then put toothpaste onto your brush, figure that it is also covered with dirt and is so unhygienic that it can’t be used. You try to breathe and calm yourself, move out of the house to get fresh air, but then get stuck in between piles of garbage. You walk and walk, but you don’t find a place which is less dirty or garbage free.
