GHMC to launch debris removal drive
HYDERABAD: The GHMC has decided to take up a special debris removal drive in the first week of December. Commissioner Sameer Sharma has directed all zonal commissioners to prepare estimates after assessing the quantity of debris to be removed and the number of trips to be made in advance.
Dumping places should also be notified when tenders are finalised so that the debris is not dumped on roads or storm water drains. It was realised that accumulated debris was a major issue in the city and such drives should be taken up at least every six months in May/December.
The corporator, ward committee members, area sabha members concerned are to be given advance information to enable them to monitor and certify the work, a press release said.
