While recording the video, Bhatia pointed towards the littered stretch and identified the location as Sunset Boulevard in Gurugram, expressing concern over the state of the area.

The video has put the spotlight on the deteriorating condition of the road, triggering widespread discussion across social media over civic sense, waste management and accountability.

Another remarked, "Zero civic sense."

Zero civic sense coupled with lack of strict enforcement..is destroying our spaces

It's not mental illness, it's zero enforcement. Nobody's ever paid a fine for it, so nobody stops.

A third user added, "There is no sense of ownership," while another sarcastically renamed the stretch, calling it "Garbage boulevard!"
