UP Sanitation Worker Dumps Garbage Into River: Every few days, a new video pops up online and once again starts a debate about civic sense in India. This time, a clip from Uttar Pradesh has left many people angry and disappointed. The viral video shows a sanitation worker cleaning the area near Shiva Ghat in Kushinagar. At first, he is seen sweeping the riverside properly. But what happens next has upset viewers.

Instead of collecting the waste and throwing it in a dustbin, he dumps all the garbage straight into the river. It almost looks like he is using the river itself as a giant dustbin. The video was recorded by a man who was visiting the ghat. He captured the moment and shared it online. Within no time, the clip started spreading across social media, drawing sharp reactions from users.

The post shared on Instagram by the handle ‘x_badalking’ around six days ago quickly gained many views. The text on the video simply asked, "Is this correct?" While said that lessons about ‘civic sense’ should be taught from a young age. Others demanded strict action and penalties so that such careless behaviour does not repeat.

One user wrote, "He should get Bharat Ratna." "I don't want any likes on my reel, I just want it to be stopped, just share it," a second user wrote. "Tum bhi to rok sakate the pr dikhana important hai bhai Ko," wrote a third user. "This is the beauty of India," added a fourth user.

"It does not matter if it's Haridwar or Tamkuhi, awareness should be among all of us. Spiritually or environmentally, the river is being contaminated. It is harmful in either way," another user added. "I think they didn't get proper guidance for cleaning. The government should provide a training program where they can learn about pollution, cleaning, etc.," another person added.
