The city is stinking with piles of garbage found almost in every street of the city. The rains have added to the filthy odour emanating from the wet garbage. Sensing the aggravating situation GMC in-charge commissioner C.Anuradha has embarked on redeeming the city from major garbage dumps.
She appealed to the striking regular sanitation employees to fall in line and join the campaign to rid the city of piles of garbage. She asked the Health department officers to initiate action against the striking employees by issuing notices to them to immediately report to work or face administrative action. Anuradha supervised clearing of the garbage with police assistance as the striking employees were opposing the lifting of garbage.
Quoting a supreme court order 117, she maintained that the emergency services employees cannot strike work and create problems to the people. She warned those who were obstructing those employed to maintain essential services including operation of street lighting, water supply and sanitary services.
