The commissioner visited the portable compactor site and material recovery facility (MRF) site in block-J of Sarabha Nagar.

During the visit, he acknowledged the efforts being made to segregate dry and wet waste and issued directions to ensure 100 % waste segregation and timely lifting of garbage.

Rishi stated that the civic body has also issued work orders for installing portable compactors at 22 locations across the city and the compactors would be installed soon.

After the installation of compactors, open dumping of garbage in the city will come to an end. It will not only provide a major relief to the residents, but it will also help the authorities in ensuring segregation of waste and improving solid waste management at large.
