'Bharat' is not going to be 'swachh' anytime soon despite the ambitious programme launched by the Narendra Modi government to clean the country. Next year India will send its second rocket to the Moon but when it comes to pollution, India is alarmingly filthy even by the standards of poor countries, writes The Economist magazine.

India's air and water are heavily polluted causing not only a large number of deaths in the country but also contributing to the problem globally, it says.

"Delhi’s deadly air is part of a wider crisis. Seventy percent of surface water is tainted. In the World Health Organisation’s rankings of air pollution, Indian cities claim 14 of the top 15 spots. In an index of countries’ environmental health from Yale and Columbia universities, India ranks a dismal 177th out of 180," says an article in the latest issue of the magazine.

"Recent estimates put the annual death toll from breathing pm 2.5 alone at 1.2m-2.2m a year. The lifespan of Delhi-dwellers is shortened by more than ten years, says the University of Chicago. Consumption of dirty water directly causes 200,000 deaths a year, a government think-tank reckons, without measuring its contribution to slower killers such as kidney disease. Some 600m Indians, nearly half the country, live in areas where water is in short supply.
As pollutants taint groundwater, and global warming makes the vital monsoon rains more erratic, the country is poisoning its own future," the article says.

The article argues that India can't hide behind the excuse of being a poor country because it is polluted not just in absolute terms, but also relative to its level of development. "It is true that some ways of cutting pollution are expensive. But there are also cheap solutions, such as undoing mistakes that Indian bureaucrats have themselves made. By subsidising rice farmers, for instance, the government has in effect cheered on the guzzling of groundwater and the torching of stubble.
Rules that encourage the use of coal have not made India more self-reliant, as intended, but instead have led to big imports of foreign coal while blackening India’s skies. Much cleaner gas-fired power plants, meanwhile, sit idle," the article says.

Praising PM Modi for promising to free India of open defecation and then building 90 million toilets in four and a half years of his government, the article says India is still not clean. India's skies, streets, rivers and coasts require similar attention from PM Modi, it says.

Man, I thought supa powa verdic hero modi made India shiny instead of a big dirty junk yard

Is it that difficult to comprehend ?
As I said, I know my India better, If I say I know Pakistan better that will be an exaggeration. And I know it.

Visit Bangalore for a sample of India''s filth. The space below flyover are garbage dumps, with slum dwellers, mangy stray dogs, cows, etc adding to the filth. Foot paths are taken over by food vendors and the city corporation officials benefit from these businesses! The CM and his deputy have both pleaded helplessness saying that the garbage mafia -- which includes many MLA''s and important people from the ruling parties -- is just too powerful! Construction materials are dumped on the foot pat ..

Indeed we have filth issue. And the first step to solve an issue is to acknowledge it, our PM did exactly the same

Take an Example of city Indore. 10 years ago its was something else now it's totally clean.

We know how to do it. And we will.

 

[HariPrasad]

We spend more because we are the only country surrounded by two nuclear adversaries with whom we have had several wars.

We also spend huge ( but it's still far less ) money over poor.

Taj was not built in a day... We are moving in the right direction, but the speed should be better .

We do not spend more at all. Our GDP to defense expense is the lowest. We do not spend on army by keeping our population hungry and uneducated. In 21 st century, some country's literacy rate goes down in zeal of being a muscular power and security state though thousands of children suffer from Polio.

Millions of premature deaths due to unclean water and air, is the price to pay for being a superpower.

Per capita income 1670 dollars. Suck it Pakistan...

 

[Yaseen1]

[Sine Nomine]

South Asian cities aren't generally different from each other.

Ganges river n rat temple simply turned my stomach inside out.
