RECENTLY, the Hyderabad commissioner convened a meeting for allotment or reservation of land for a sanitary landfill site and two garbage transfer stations for the city’s Integrated Municipal Solid Waste Management project. The decision is laudable, but how will the municipality clean up the garbage if it burnt it beforehand?
In order to make this project workable, it is necessary to provide large bins on chowks throughout residential societies, as well as near hospitals, for preventing the city’s environment from ground and air pollution resulting from garbage burning .
