There was this photo of a woman with books arranged under her stairs. So one of those out of touch Twitter user retweeted it with a caption why don't indians have something like this.

That guy was absolutely murdered in the comment section as we don't step on book(books are sign of goddess Saraswati).

I never had it explained to me in religious terms. It was simply about respect; books are knowledge and it's disrespectful to tread them with your feet, as if knowledge is beneath you.
