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.

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)…
