Sir,
This has reference to the article ‘The city of garbage’ DE Aug 30.
The author has drawn our attention to an issue which concerns all the citizens of the city. But it is quite disappointing to note that as citizens we are yet to awake to this problem. Our lanes and drains remain chock-a-block with garbage on which stray cattle and dogs feed themselves day and night. The garbage dumps not only deface the city but their stench makes life of people quite miserable. Though people are to a great extent responsible for this situation, the JMC is in no less responsible ‘People would dump household refuse in streets or any vacant place. They never bother to dispose it scientifically or in a way which does not cause inconvenience to others. Unless we adopt the attitude of maintaining our streets clean, we will have to encounter such repulsive sights everywhere we go.
Yours etc…..
