Guntur Municipal Corporation to introduce Real Time Monitoring System soon
The Guntur Municipal Corporation will introduce Real Time Monitoring System RTMS to improve sanitation and to know whether a sanitary worker collecting garbage from all the houses allotted to him every day or not
Guntur: The Guntur Municipal Corporation will introduce Real Time Monitoring System (RTMS) to improve sanitation and to know whether a sanitary worker collecting garbage from all the houses allotted to him every day or not.
The GMC divided every 300 houses as one micro-pocket and allotted 2.5 sanitary workers for every 300 houses and one pushcart for collecting garbage from doorsteps of house. The new system will be introduced within a week.
According to official sources, under the system, the GMC divided 62 wards in Guntur city into 736 micro-pockets and allotted 1,605 sanitary workers for collecting garbage.
The GMC will tag all the houses with radio frequency identification (RFID) for better monitoring. Under the system, as soon sanitation worker entered a house, the RFID tag will trap his photo immediately, based on that the GMC commissioner or public health officer will check whether the sanitary worker collected garbage from a house or not. The GMC feels that the workers will do their duties effectively with the introduction of effective monitoring system.
Currently, the Guntur city is generating 420 metric tonnes of garbage per day. The GMC is already using GPS system to locate the vehicle carrying garbage from dustbin to dumping yard. The GMC will pay salaries to sanitary workers enrolled their names in online and attached to micro-pockets.
GMC public health officer Dr G Sobha Rani said “Real Time Monitoring System will be useful to improve sanitation. As soon as sanitary workers enter one house, the RFID tag will trap his photo immediately and check whether he is collecting garbage from all the houses or not. The GMC has already tagged the houses with RFID. The GMC will introduce RTMS within two or three days.”
