The residents of Indore will find themselves fined and shamed by the local municipal body if found spitting in public places.
The commercial capital of Madhya Pradesh was adjudged the cleanest city in the country in the "Clean Survey 2017".
Mayor Malini Laxman Singh Gaud today told PTI that if a person is caught spitting paan or gutkha in public places, he will be fined Rs 500.
Also, names of such people will be made public through newspapers and announced on radio so they feel embarrassed for their act and don't repeat it, she said.
Gaud said spitting is mostly visible at traffic signals and road dividers. Municipal employees would monitor these spots and fine the offenders on the spot.
