Nagpur. There was a time when the identity of Nagpur was made of clean and beautiful city, but now this city has lost that identity. Wherever you look, the debris, dust, dirt of the construction work is visible. Even on the divider between the roads, piles of debris and garbage can be seen. Municipal administration also does not pay attention towards cleanliness. Last year, Nagpur’s place in the ongoing cleanliness mission in the country came 18th among the cities across the country. Instead of trying to improve this rank, the city’s captains did the opposite.
Sometime back the city has been ranked 23rd in the cleanliness rank. Despite this, the attention of the municipal administration and the authorities is not in the planning of cleanliness of the city, it is surprising. Due to lack of control over the waste collection contractor company and the cleaning staff, today even in the colonies of the city, heaps of garbage are seen on the empty plots and on the side of the roads.
Small dumping yards have been made in many places
The condition is that garbage, cut branches of trees, piles of bushes are seen lying on the turns in the streets of the settlement. Similar is the case with almost every settlement. Be it Snehnagar or Bharatnagar or Ravinagar or Vardhmanagar. Garbage is being dumped in many settlements and colonies in every area of the city. The vehicles of the garbage collection company are not lifting this pile for several days.
Due to which the foul smell emanating from the pile of dirt has also become a threat to the health of the citizens. In many slums, roads and streets are not cleaned for two days. In some settlements, a garbage collection vehicle comes under the guise of a day. The complaint is not heard. Even after the instructions for separate collection of wet-dry garbage, the garbage collectors are not following it.
heaps on empty plots
In the settlements situated on the banks of rivers and streams, the citizens also throw the false garbage of the house on the banks of the rivers and streams. Empty plots have become dangerous. In almost every settlement and colony, people are littering and littering in empty plots, but neither the Municipal Corporation is taking any action nor cleaning the plots. In such a situation, how the city will be made a clean city is beyond comprehension.
It is also surprising that even after the fall in the ranking in the cleanliness mission, the municipal administration is showing slowness in this direction. The city has been made bin free, but as a result, where bins have not been installed for dumping garbage, people are throwing garbage on the side of the sidewalk and in empty places, drains.
arbitrariness in market complexes
In the market complexes, the arbitrariness of vegetable-fruit vendors is going on. They throw away the spoiled vegetables and garbage left in the night and leave. Usually, shops are started on the roads in the market, who are throwing their garbage on the side of the road. No action is being taken against such people. Food carts, dumpers are throwing garbage on the side of the road, in drains and rivers. There is no control on their arbitrariness.
