Bangaloreans will be punished if garbage segregation is not done
The BBMP committee explained that different approaches will be adopted to handle various types of waste. The committee made it very clear that the residents will be punished if segregation is not done at source. BBMP will not collect waste which are not segregated.
Apartments in Bangalore too will have to segregate waste at source. The BBMP will pick up waste from apartments and housing colonies as is being done in the case of individual residences or bungalows. For three months, the civic body will examine the residents of large housing complexes and check whether they can bear the responsibility of solid waste management.
Soon a circular will be issued with the details of penalties on residents not segregating waste. Garbage collection vehicles like autos, tippers, pushcarts and trucks will have compartments or separate bins/barrels for segregated waste.
