Moving forward to improve solid waste management in the city, Municipal Corporation (MC) has operationalised its static compactors site in Field Ganj area (near Division number 2 police station) on Saturday. MC Commissioner Sandeep Rishi inspected the working of the static compactors site on Saturday.
Sandeep Rishi stated that civic body has already made one static compactors site operational at the backside of civil hospital (near Christian Dental College) and the second compactor site has been made operational in Field Ganj (opposite civil hospital) on Saturday. Another compactors site at Khwaja Kothi chowk (near Division number 3) would also be made operational on Monday (April 15).
Sandeep Rishi further stated that this will help the civic body in removing the open garbage dump site at the backside of the civil hospital, as the garbage would now be dumped at these compactor sites. After the removal of open dump from this site, there would be no foul smell in the area and this will also prove beneficial in tackling the rat menace around the civil hospital.
The civic body officials stated that static compactors are being installed at 22 locations across the city to remove the open garbage dumps. A number of compactor sites have already been made operational.
MC Superintending Engineer Sanjay Kanwar, SDO Bajinder Singh among other officials were also present during the inspection.
