English

[proverb] Like sweeping underneath a banyan tree; every day there is garbage. The leaves of a banyan tree drop off frequently and fast. So it is rather useless to keep sweeping up below the tree. This expression indicates a situation in which someone tries to do something to change a bad situation, but the situation becomes even worse. In trying to solve current problems, more problems are added. For example, the prohibition against gambling.
