‘I’ve no problem cleaning…’: Foreigner picks up trash near Himachal waterfall, urges locals to keep it clean

As the video continues, he walks towards the dustbin with several plastic wrappers in his hands and dumps them. “Shameful a foreign tourist is more concerned about nature’s beauty while local tourists keep shamelessly littering such stunning places. No govt or administration is to be blamed — it’s the people who need to change if we ever want a clean country. Video from Kangra, Himachal,” an X user Nikhil Saini wrote on X.

The video quickly drew attention, igniting outrage against locals and Indian tourists, who lacked social responsibility. “Hv said it many times. Need a generational shift in the mindset. Teach your children that it is bad. I hv seen people telling their kids to throw trash out of the car. Civic sense is zero amongst us,” a user wrote. “There’s a reason Indian tourists are often shamed and looked down upon. It’s not just to do with racism but also our pathetic behaviour and “chalta hai” attitude,” another user commented.

“Absolutely shameful. Until people change their mindset, no amount of rules or governance can keep our country clean,” a third user reacted.
