After government’s ‘preliminary draft’ for solution, landfill victims defer their protest until Oct 7

Negligence at the landfill site has caused reduction in agricultural production, proliferation of flies, disruption of education in schools, respiratory problems and skin diseases.

After assurance from Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers for solving the garbage problem in Banchare Danda through the formation of a separate, independent entity, the Banchare Danda Landfill Affected Area Concern Committee and local residents have postponed their strike of obstructing garbage disposal till October 7.
