By Basavaraj Itnaal, DH News Service, Bangalore:
The IT capital is the only city in the country that employs qualified doctors, some of them specialists, to manage garbage.
Apparently, Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagar Palike (BBMP) is yet to wake up to the fact that there is a discipline in engineering called Environmental Engineering. For, Palike does not employ a single Environmental Engineer while it has to collect more than 3,500 tonnes of garbage every day, transport and dispose it at scientific landfills.
