As we all know that the habit of spitting in an open is very bad and cleaning its stains is a challenge in itself. If we spit in any public place, then its particles can spread up to 27 feet in the air.

This germ is deadly for people of all ages, including the elderly, children, pregnant women. Not only this, the germs produced from this spit have an important contribution in spreading disease like TB, swine flu, COVID-19 and many more in the country.

Spitting in public places was also forbidden during the first and second wave of the global pandemic COVID-19 to prevent the spread of the virus. In India, under the Disaster Management Act, since 2005, there is a challan for spitting in a public place and its amount ranges from 200 to 5000 rupees.
