Shamaspur - Jhelum

There are many countries that always struggle with excessive garbage and vandalism. But what could people do to do something about it? To help keep their country clean? Many countries have many organizations both large, small or even communities and committees that are aware about the cleanliness of their country. Having a clean country helps tourism and even improves the lives of many residents; let's face it, everybody like to live in a clean environment.

Yesterday I was visiting a village Shamaspur, in Jhelum (Coordinates: 33°00′24″N 73°41′44″E) there I saw something different and it was attracting me. There is a village youth committee which is working for the betterment of village, and a big example of that was collection of the garbage to keep the village clean. They have placed metal Bins in every corner of every street to collect excessive garbage. This was very impressive system to see in a village, if whole country adopts it we can make our beautiful country more clean and beautiful.

Why should one contribute to society? Well the answer is simple, wouldn't you like that the area where you live, or the places you frequent to be clean? Islam also encourages us to remain clean and to also keep our home clean; this country is also our home, so we should keep it clean.  

By having these kinds of communities throughout the country, we could make life easier and have cleaner areas just by contributing a small amount of time. If everyone just gives a small amount of time, imagine what a difference it could make to the world.
