Garbage issue: Mayor to meet Chandy today
Mayor K. Chandrika has said that she will raise the
city’s garbage disposal issue with Chief Minister Oommen Chandy at a
meeting here on Monday.
“The government will have to
find a way to dispose of the waste that will get accumulated in the city
after the Onam-related celebrations. I will request the Chief Minister
to help us identify places for waste disposal,” Ms. Chandrika said at
the valedictory of CREDAI Property Show, which concluded here on Sunday.
According
to the Mayor, rapid urbanisation is becoming a concern for the capital
city. “The waste generated by the floating population is a major issue.
After the Onam celebrations, the Corporation will have a tough time.
Outbreak of diseases cannot be ruled out,” she said.
