Only multiple trips to dumps will rid city of waste, they say

With continuing problems at landfill sites, the city’s garbage crisis seems to be getting messier. On Thursday, garbage contractors staged a protest in front of the office of Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Commissioner Rajneesh Goel demanding security for their vehicles. After meeting the garbage contractors, Mr. Goel announced the BBMP would form a squad of five officials who will manage the sites during night. They will be posted at the landfills on a rotation basis.
