Summary:
Regular garbage collection is seen only in core Bengaluru areas, where BBMP claims there is a proper system in place for timely collection. It has 4,500 auto tippers and 565 contractors are engaged to collect garbage but this does not happen.BBMP has drawn up 4,235 block maps. BBMP Joint Commissioner (SWM) Randeep D admits there still isn’t 100% garbage collection from every house, and BBMP is lagging far behind. “It is definitely known that in many parts of the city, the collection of garbage is not 100% as auto tippers are not moving around. Another big problem in garbage collection is the common complaint from citizens that auto tippers and compactors give preferential treatment to big housing apartments and neglect many independent houses in their area..
