Instructions for cleanliness and waste disposal
خلفية ثقافية
Cleanliness drives (Swachhata Abhiyan) are very popular in cities like Pune. Residents often organize 'Vasti' (neighborhood) cleaning days. During the Pandharpur Wari (pilgrimage), millions of people walk across Maharashtra. 'Nirmal Wari' is a movement to ensure they don't leave trash behind. Sant Gadge Baba is the ultimate icon of cleanliness in Maharashtra. He used to clean streets with a broom while singing bhajans. In Mumbai, the 'Clean-up Marshals' are authorized to fine people who ignore these signs. It's a serious matter of urban law.
