Waste segregation fails to catch on in City
The second day of the new system of garbage disposal in the City saw the segregation at source drive go for a toss in many areas.
Garbage lies uncleared on Katriguppe main road in Bangalore on Tuesday. Garbage piled up in bulk in many places including some posh areas such as Shanthi Nagar, JP Nagar, Banashankari and Basavanagudi. Areas like Shivajinagar, Chamarajpet, Yarab Nagar, Kurubarahalli, Yelachenahalli and Ittamadu were in a utter mess. The situation all over the City sent across a single message - that the segregation message had not gone across to the citizens. At Shivajinagar, a woman denied having heard of segregation.
