No residential areas near dumping grounds in Mumbai: Maharashtra govt
The residential areas near dumping grounds in Mumbai have been complaining about the inconvenience caused to them. To curb civic problem the State Ministry for Urban Development has declared that the state would legally disallow residential areas around any dumping grounds developed in future.
A residents’ group had approached the Supreme Court against the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) for the closure of the dumping ground at Chinchavali. Similar case has happened with residents living near the dumping ground at Gorai and the court ruled in favour of the residents.
To address the issue the ministry has come up with a plan along with BMC to reserve specific plots for dumping grounds in the city’s new development plan.
