Chennai now where in clean cities
There is no mechanism in place to even look at what are our waste management or sanitation systems in the city. There is a complete collapse of health and sanitation management in the city. In terms of garbage management, no matter how many times or for how many years communities and city groups have been advising or asking the Corporation to decentralize the waste management practices or to do away with the landfills, to look at reduction, to look at the producer’s responsibility - none of those mechanisms have been put in place. more

It is very sad that Chennai is becoming worse day by day, because of total negligence by the Government. There is a protest everyday for one reason or the other. No cleanliness, Traffic discipline, Safety of people. More thefts, rapes are reported. Only in corruption our State has gained to no.1 position. more

In Trichy it is working nicely. Earlier we did not know even the commissioner. Now we know the inspectors and cleaners even. If it is not working in your area, it may be due to persons in the locality who like grumbling about anything more

Your solution asks for rules & punishments. But Modi govt does most things without those measures, only in a friendly way more

Though partly I agree with Shikha the system should begin from home. The public has to be educated or stringent measures should be taken for waste mnagement by each and every home in the city of Chennai. How many people put the decomposable aqnd non-deecomposable wastes separately ? The uneducated rag pickers who spoils everything in the early morning hours should be curbed/controlled who spills the garbage on the roads to take the materials from the bag. We are far from following the rules. The corrupt officials are another big obstacle and yet it is beautiful chennai, certain things have improved let us hope for the good if not the best in coming days where an official who means business takes over in Chennai Corporation. more

In Bangalore, some citizen groups are doing their bit on waste management. One of them is Hasiru Dala (https://hasirudalainnovations.com/about-us/). There are more such initiatives. You might want to seek their help. Depending on the administration is not of much use. more
