Go to Google maps.
Turn on street view, type in India.
You can have as many attempts as you want. If you find a street in the 360 street view that doesn't have garbage, rubble or shit in it, you win.
Ps. I think it's actually impossible to win.

I went the other direction, and tried the presidential palace.
Nope, poop.
Did the same a few months ago when I learned of this game on patriots.
Nope. 25 minutes I spent, tried rural farmland, cities, palaces, mountains.
Nope. Always trash.
It's mindboggling. India is absolutely massive, the sheer amount of trash this must equal is beyond reckoning.
but we have to do our part and live with less in america
and also apparently let one of these run our country despite her incompetenc and lack of qualification to even hold the office.
It’s also partly because, to my knowledge, municipal waste collection just… Doesn’t exist. And there’s no, for example, urban garbage bins/trash cans.
People just dump shit on the side of the road, and then burn it. On the open-windowed trains, it’s just thrown out the window…
In Darjeeling (so relatively less poor, at least historically), when you walked around the town squares, you would have piles of trash smouldering away off to the side, and everything vaguely smelled of it. It was… Unpleasant.
Varanasi and Old Delhi were the worst I saw, however. At least 10 times worse than Darjeeling, Jaipur or even Agra (where the Taj is)…
I couldn't even find a strip of highway that didn't have a building in sight, let alone one that didn't have trash around. It's mind boggling. The only undeveloped areas in India are the flood plains, and that is only occasionally undeveloped.
Having been there, if you go to the Northeast, it’s not really like that. Especially areas of just forest and farmland.
Mind you, I had to travel several hours east by train from where I was staying, already in the East (West Bengal) to see that, so you do have a point…
In general though, the further you get from Delhi, the less the overdevelopment is a thing.
Rajasthan (which you see in, for example, Octopussy) really wasn’t that bad…
is it true the first thing you smelled getting out of the plane is shit and remained shit until you leave?
