Dumping of Anakapalle garbage in city likely
Garbage of Anakapalle, which the municipality could not dump at Achayyapeta near the town following an interim stay order issued by the High Court, may now come all the way to Visakhapatnam.
Following a request from the municipality to the Special Officer, the Gajuwaka zone Commissioner has been contacted, according to GVMC Commissioner M.V. Satyanarayana here on Monday.
The zone Commissioner said that there was space but even the garbage from the transfer station at Gajuwaka was being sent to the dumping yard at Kapuluppada. Hence the garbage from Anakapalle could be directly sent to Kapuluppada.
The High Court has passed interim orders on a petition filed by the villagers last month that garbage should not be dumped at Achayyapeta. The case will come up for hearing on June 3.
