Description:
Recently a video circulated on social media showing a group of foreign tourists visiting a slum area in India and filming or photographing poor people — including individuals living in makeshift homes — without asking for permission. In the video, the tourists appear to treat the poverty-stricken surroundings as a spectacle, rather than interacting respectfully or offering help. The clip drew instant reactions because many felt it was deeply insensitive and exploitative, turning human hardship into content for views. This has sparked widespread public criticism. Many people — including locals who saw the video — expressed anger and disappointment. They argued that such filming reduces human dignity to entertainment, and paints a one-dimensional picture of India: focusing only on misery and poverty. Critics called this behaviour “poverty tourism,” meaning outsiders use images of poor or vulnerable communities to generate sensational content for social media or personal popularity, without caring for the people they record. The incident also triggered conversations on privacy and consent. People pointed out that even in public spaces, filming individuals — especially those in vulnerable conditions — demands respect: one should ask permission, explain intent, and avoid exploiting suffering. When someone’s life conditions are used without consent or context, it becomes a violation of personal dignity, and can perpetuate harmful stereotypes or misinformation. Finally, many argued that this kind of content harms not only the individuals shown but also the image of the country. It reduces complex social and economic realities to voyeuristic content for foreigners’ entertainment. The call from many now is for greater awareness — that tourism and content creation must come with sensitivity, empathy, and responsibility toward people’s dignity.
