India has a modern garbage crisis born of explosive urban growth, industrial waste, plastic consumer goods, and underfunded municipalities. Religious ideas about purity never addressed polyethylene or diesel soot, so they offered no defence when the trash tide arrived. Infrastructure is catching up (more composting, landfill biomining, more numerous dustbins, trained sweepers, etc.,) but with half a billion urban residents the street-level optics will take another decade to match the rhetoric.
This is how Indian streets looked in the 1800s, before industrial waste, plastics, and overcrowding became widespread, for example.
