As we all know that the habit of spitting in an open is very bad and cleaning its stains is a challenge in itself. If we spit in any public place, then its particles can spread up to 27 feet in the air. This germ is deadly for people of all ages, including the elderly, children, pregnant women. Not only this, the germs produced from this spit have an important contribution in spreading disease like TB, swine flu, COVID-19 and many more in the country. Spitting in public places was also forbidden during the first and second wave of the global pandemic COVID-19 to prevent the spread of the virus. In India, under the Disaster Management Act, since 2005, there is a challan for spitting in a public place and its amount ranges from 200 to 5000 rupees.
Indian Railways spends 1200 crore rupees and a lot of water every year to clean the stains and marks caused by spitting. Apart from railway stations, spit spots are also easily seen in bus stands, hospitals, markets and many other public places. As there are proper arrangements for toilets, dustbins etc in many public places and on the other hand there should be a proper arrangement for spitting so that people do not spit in any place and the infection does not spread. These pouches contains a seed along with some sand like material which absorbs the spit. After using the pouch, it can be put in the soil where the plant can also be grown. From Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Ratan Tata has praised this unique innovation of plantation along with cleanliness.
