Vandalism represents the behavior characteristics of a person who willfully destroys works
of art, spoils the beauties of nature and destructs the public property. Now-a-days, it has become
very common to deliberately mass destroy and destruct public property whenever an agitation
starts. If you visit the places of historical importance, you will find that the wall are often stained
with betel-leaf juice or otherwise defaced with scratches or ugly marks. If you travel by buses or
trains, you will find that seats are often ripped open and the forms pulled out, names scratched on
the back of seats etc .... All these are signs of vandalism . Vandalism is not exclusive to India. It is a
universal phenomenon.
The people who have utter disregard for public property do all this - people who do not and
cannot identify themselves with either the society or the nation. They do not have a sense of
belonging or loyalty towards their society. It can also be the expression of frustration by some
people who, in their way, show their hatred for the society and its value. In some cases it could be
for drawing attention to themselves or just the desire to see their names permanently written in a
prominent place. One thing is clear that such people are anti-social and uncultured citizens.
