We are implementing plastic ban strictly: Mayor Sampath Raj
It is illegal and no one has any right to use the space for segregation of garbage, Mayor added.
Q&A with mayor Sampath Raj
Storm water drains are laden with plastic. Why is the plastic ban not being implemented strictly?
We know the problem and the ban is being implemented strictly by the BBMP. SWDs are being cleaned and complaints addressed.
The lakes and their rim are being used as a transit point for garbage. Is it not illegal?
It is illegal and no one has any right to use the space for segregation of garbage. I will call the officers concerned to address the issue wherever it is happening.
The cameras are yet to be installed at several locations to prevent garbage dumping and burning. When will it happen?
It is in the process and will be installed across the locations to prevent theft and other concerned issues as well.
