In a concerning incident reported from Nainital, a family from Uttar Pradesh, which celebrated a birthday on the roadside of mountainous terrain, left the area littered with tissue papers, paper cups, and more.

In the video, a woman named Shinjini Sengupta, who saw the family littering the Lovers Point in Nainital after celebrating a birthday there, urged them to dispose the trash in a dustbin. However, she pointed out that they didn't abide by it.
