BBMP says waste management is to be cheaper
The Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) sources say that expenditure on solid waste management may come down soon.
The civic body spends around Rs 400 crore on solid waste management at present. The contractors participated in the new garbage tenders had quoted up to 40 per cent less.
With relaxation of terms and conditions in the new garbage tenders, the new contractors are able to participate. The councillors had sought relaxation in terms and conditions to ensure that the “garbage mafia” did not get to participate in the new tenders.
The BBMP had given Hanjeer Biotech Energy Pvt. Ltd. the work order for the scientific disposal (segregation and composting) of 750 tonnes of municipal waste a day.
