Beware Of Spitting And Littering Around

If you are in Mumbai and you feel like spitting, be careful as there will be marshals around who will extract a fine from you for the offence. The Maharashtra government has imposed a fine on littering, spitting and urinating in public places. For big cities such as Mumbai and Pune, the fine for spitting has been fixed at Rs150, for littering at Rs180 and for urinating at Rs200. Citizens found guilty of any of the above violations will be charged the penalties. This initiative has been undertaken across the state as part of the Swachh Maharashtra drive under Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.
