BBMP plans to manage city’s garbage
Mayor S K Nataraj, Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Commissioner Siddaiah and other officials visited Anekal in Bangalore Rural district to inspect the 20acre site, where the proposed waste management units will come up. Also, the team visited K R Market and inspected the place to explore the possibility to set up a wetwaste segregation and processing unit there. The BBMP is considering the option to generate biogas from the waste.
Managing solid waste has become a challenge for the BBMP, what with the city generating around 3,000 tonnes of it daily.
