Indian Innovation – Reflection of shame

Necessity is the mother of all invention and innovation too; with the rising Indian economy towards a developed one, we tend to look up the western world for solutions to problems and try to imitate the same here.

But there are some problems specific to India and which needs a different approach and solution, I am interested or can say excited to read and further list down them.

So I am trying to start a series called Indian innovation (hope to find more interesting stuffs to further proceed with it), so my first one will be on the notorious Indian public attending the nature’s call in public walls.

Ghaziabad city administration has in order to stop people from using city walls as public toilets has installed mirrors on the walls with the slogan "What you do, the world sees" inscribed alongside.

So they have finally made the pissers get pissed off,

But the wall-wetters didn’t give up without a fight. They broke some of the mirrors. So the administration hit right back and replaced the broken mirrors with the ones that don't crack. “

Humans mind tends to do things under constraints so its only time before an innovator among the common man finds a way to bypass the measure.

The battle might have been over but the War will go on…..
