 Meet on master plan for the city


 

KOCHI: The failure to implement projects formulated to manage domestic waste at its place of origin has led to the current waste management crisis in the city, former Tamil Nadu Chief Secretary P C Cyriac said here on Saturday.

Inaugurating the public meeting on ‘A Master plan for the city’ organised by the Kochi Nagara Powra Samiti at the Chavara Cultural Centre, he said projects to produce biogas and vermi-compost had been sidelined.

 Former Chief Town Planner Joseph Alexander, who led the discussion, said the master plan prepared in 1965, including five major roads in the city, was yet to be implemented fully.
