Two persons had to drive back from Madikeri to Kodagu in Karnataka to collect waste they threw in open, on the behest of the police after Kodagu Tourism Association's General Secretary posted the video of garbage on social media.

Madetira Thimmaiah, General Secretary, Kodagu Tourism Association said that "I found their number on a bill inside the pizza box & called them, but they did not give a positive response".

But after he posted a video of the garbage online & informed the Police of the incident, various villagers also requested the Police to look into the matter. Consequently, the travellers were made to go back around 80 km from Mysore to Kodagu to clean it.

The incident occurred on Oct 30.

Madetira Thimmaiah said that "I posted the video of garbage on social media requesting the people of Kodagu to call them & ask them to collect the waste they threw irresponsibly. I also informed the Circle Inspector who also contacted them & asked to do the same".
