Denmark's diplomat to India, Freddy Svane, on Wednesday shared a video on X, showing garbage dump outside the embassy building. “I hope somebody will listen to this and take action,” Svane said. Hours after the Denmark diplomat raised the issue, the city's civic body cleaned up the area.

“Welcome to great, green, and trashy New Delhi,” Freddy Svane said as he showed the road full of garbage.

“Here we have the Danish embassy and we have the Greek embassy over there. This should be a service lane but it is full of trash and people and people come here to do whatever they like to do here," he said.

He shared the video with the caption: “Lovely and green New Delhi. Many words but no action. Saddened by this”

The New Delhi Municipal Committee was quick to take action and the civic body dispatched officials to clean up the site.

Visuals from the spot showed the Danish diplomat with the NDMC officials.
