Summary:
Aurangabad: As part of the annual exercise for Ganesh Utsav, Aurangabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has undertaken the cleaning of nine public wells through tendering. The safety of labourers is also a question, as no safety mechanisms are in place.The civic body undertakes the cleaning exercise to facilitate immersion of Ganesh idols. However, no proper system has been formulated for the disposal of the waste lifted out from the wells. Proper safety gear like masks, helmets and jackets should be provided. The garbage removed from the well was sent to Harsul Sawangi.These are wells that gather organic and non-biodegradable waste..
