Hameeda Begum, a local resident complained some people set ablaze the garbage as a means to dispose of it. “The GHMC workers themselves adopt this method when we ask them to clean the place,” she claimed.
The local population comprises BPL families who depend on daily wages for their survival. The residents want the authorities to hold health camps and conduct special drives to clean the trash and rid the area of mosquito menace.
