God bless all those who invest their time and effort in the seeking the betterment of their people and their villages, towns, cities, and their surroundings, with their Awareness Campaign, which is aptly right.
People must stop spitting, littering, and urinating in the streets – and a survey will conclude that only MEN are behind all the miseries of the society in general. They purchase ghutka and litter the packs and spit it out when done, they purchase beedis or cigarettes and throw the butts around, they urinate in street corners, and only they rape and murder! So in general, MEN must be made more aware of the nuisance they are to Society in general. Their awareness can only bring about a true change.
