Lucknow offices face cleanliness crisis from paan spitting

Government offices in Lucknow are facing a cleanliness crisis due to widespread spitting of paan and gutkha. Recent inspections revealed stained walls, corners, and public spaces, despite previous directives to stop this behavior. The situation is particularly bad at Indira Bhawan, Jawahar Bhawan, and Vikas Bhawan, where toilets are also in poor condition. Many public restrooms remain locked, making it difficult for visitors to find clean facilities. The ongoing issue highlights a lack of hygiene awareness among employees. Calls for stricter enforcement, including fines and surveillance, have been made to address the problem and improve sanitation in public spaces.
