Outrage over garbage dumping in open plot

Pragati Nagar: After facing a lot of trouble, the residents of the area covered the plot with a wired mesh to prevent people from throwing the garbage. This alternative to stop the dumping of garbage in the open plot has failed.

Speaking to The Hans India here on Thursday, Swathi R, a resident of the area said, "Yesterday evening, when I and my children were sitting on the stairs of my house, I saw two people going on their motorbike throwing a water bottle across the mesh.

When I scolded them and told them to see what was written in the banner 'Do not throw garbage here' they simply left laughing. This has become a very big problem for us. We cannot even sit outside our houses for even a minute."

"Before the mesh was setup in the boundaries, all the residents in the colony kept the plastic waste aside and burnt the other garbage and then the mesh was placed. A banner was also kept of not to throw garbage in this plot, but the passers have still seen throwing garbage in the plot." said Anusha P, another resident of the area.
