What is the collective responsibility of citizens and government towards maintaining public infrastructure in India?
Protecting public infrastructure is a shared responsibility of government and citizens. Littering, defacing buildings, and damaging monuments reduce ease of living. Panchayats and municipalities must improve waste management, sanitation, traffic, and water supply. Infrastructure should be safe, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable using clean energy and eco-friendly materials. Citizens must use public facilities responsibly and report damage like potholes or broken lights to authorities.
