A man is seen in the video while his wife cooks food on the side of the road. The couple was criticized by many social media users because they were worried about their safety and how they used public space for cooking a meal. But the couple insisted that they weren’t obstructing traffic. Their response was not defensible, according to the netizens.

“Civic sense is a rare luxury in India, something not everyone seems able to afford,” one user posted the video on X. The caption further reads, “For example, a family has started cooking right in the middle of the road, making the area messy. Honestly, is this alright?”

The couple declined to move and pack the equipment after being instructed about the cooking. Rather, they did it with ease.

Due to the lack of civic consciousness among people, many videos go viral on social media, sparking discussion online.
