We cannot expect the BMC to handle a population of 18 million. With a density of 23 people per sq ft there are bound to be hygiene and cleanliness issues. However, it is a pleasant surprise to see that the citizens of Mumbai are making an effort to keep the city clean. This can be seen on the city roads where people abstain from throwing things outside their car windows.
I strongly feel that in order to make the city cleaner the age-old mentality of only keeping your house clean and throwing garbage outside your house needs to be nipped in the bud. Especially in our country hygiene is constricted to the boundaries of our house, once the house is clean we do not give much thought to the environment anymore. Mumbaikars need to feel that the entire city is their home, not just the apartment they live in.

Well said.. blame it on time pressure or hectic schedules, the concept of community cleanliness is missing or underdeveloped in our metro cities.. in fact in my travels i have seen smaller towns and villages much cleaner than our cities.
