Why Public Trash Bins Are Not Common In Non Urban Kerala?

In title i wrote "non urban" kerala because i have never roamed that much in kerala's major cities. So iam assuming there would be waste management there. In our town in palakkad there are literally no trashbins or anything for throwing wastages. So what does government want us to do? throw all the plastic on roads? ALmost everywhere on the sides of road, we can find plastic cups, bottles, bags and what not.... we cannot blame people for lack of civic sense when there are no other ways to dispose waste. is this just in our town/district or is this common in all districts? I dont think lack of funds are the issue here, our state might be in bad financial state but trash bins are one time investments and maintainance wouldnt be that high in my understanding. If we request the local authorites about this they might take action on this but this should have been a very basic responsiblity of local governments.
