This is what I tried with the help of my firends a few times.
At times, when we used to see someone spitting at wrong places, one of members of our group would immitate the act and other one would get over to him and shout out about health and hygiene. The rest would clap after the lecture. The other person, who actually made us move for the act showed expressions of embarassment. I bet, the play worked over some of the people.
Anyways, to add to your suggestion, I believe, apart from laws, we gotta spread awareness too. How uncleanliness can give rise to diseases, and impact economy. Gradually at some point of time, people would understand.
All the best...

Adi,
Whether it is the metro city or any other it needs to be cleaned up. Government really can improve this situation other than educating people or waisting money and energy on the people around.
your are absolutly right 2 days back i watched a news that those who spit or use the road side as the urinal have to pay the panelity. It is a good start. But in our country the corruption is at a high rate for months or two this will happen in the eyes or media and people but slowly the govt will forget .
the stray dogs and cows to be kept like as in western country, you will not find a single on the road side.
I have so many suggestions is this much suffiecent.
I liked the question.

The problem of urban sanitation is closely linked to the problem of urban poverty, unemployment, migration of the labour force from the villages to the urban areas. The problem is very acute in metros like Mumbai etc. It should be tackled at the macro level, by improving the living conditions of the rural people, by salvaging the agriculture, which is now in doldrums. Creating more satellite townships and development of other towns and improving their infrastructure as well as creating more job opportunities in such towns, will ease the burden on the metros.

Educate people on the benefits of keeping a place clean. Motivate them to keep the place clean. Fines may be a good deterrent...only when enforced. In countries like India, where police can be bought (read: bribed), enforcement is highly difficult.

Charity begins at home. Most important thing is to educate people the importance of personal hygiene. If every person considers the city as his home he would keep it as clean as he would his own home. The motto should be " If it is to be, it is upto me". And there is no better day then TODAY to start the good work.

we can keep metro cities like Mumbai clean, by everyone keeping their area clean themselves and rest of the Municipality. Population, illiteracy, lack of virtues (character) are the main cause of unclean life.

wonderful ideas,,makes sense, to let the pigs clean the pig crap,, also teaches them not to be such pigs.
Litter is a disgrace to the litterer, and the community, and chases away investers, and tourists.
