Viral video: ‘Swachh Bharat’ goes for a toss as man commits filthy act inside elevator

In a disgusting moment caught on CCTV, a man has gone viral for all the wrong reasons — doing the unthinkable inside an elevator, leaving netizens speechless.

The viral video, reportedly captured inside a residential or office building, begins with two men standing in the lift, each holding a jar of water. Moments later, the elevator stops at a floor and both men exit with the jars. But what follows has left social media in utter disbelief.

One of the men, wearing a white printed shirt, re-enters the elevator alone. As soon as the lift doors close, he turns to the left corner and shamelessly begins urinating inside, as casually as one might check their phone.

The viral video:

The disgusting act does not stop even when the elevator doors open mid-stream on another floor. Instead of halting or showing even a hint of remorse, the man hurriedly presses the door-close button to finish what he apparently considered an urgent “call of nature.”

To add insult to injury, after completing the act, he proceeds to drag the urine with his shoes toward the gap between the elevator floor and the landing — all while nonchalantly scrolling through his mobile phone.

Netizens on X (formerly Twitter) are flabbergasted over the viral video.

One user asked, “Is this man living under a rock during Swachh Bharat?”

Another user commented, “I’m not sure why he did this, but one thing is clear, we don’t have enough public toilets. Most maids, gig workers, and cab drivers spend long hours away from home and often don’t have access to toilets or clean drinking water. The government should definitely build more public restrooms (for everyone), and it would be great if these high-rise societies that regularly use their services also provided such basic facilities.”

While most elevator rides are uneventful, this one took a seriously wrong turn. If someone had walked in at that moment, it would have been nothing short of a nightmare.

Let this gut-wrenching act serve as a reminder that no amount of cleanliness, like Swachh Bharat Mission, can succeed without individual responsibility.
