Look Where You Dump Your Garbage, PMC Planning To Fine Those Who Dump Garbage At Random Places

Better dump your garbage at alotted places or you may have to cough up a penalty. Patna, where heaps of garbage are seen anywhere and everywhere, is in for better days. The Patna Municipal Corporation (PMC) is planning to fine those who dump garbage at random places and times of the day.

The PMC has earmarked over 700 garbage-collection points spread over the city's 72 wards and the residents are supposed to dump garbage only at these points. The defaulters will have to pay a fine ranging from Rs 100 to Rs 5,000 and the habitual ones may land in jail as well, PMC Commissioner Mihir Kumar Singh said on Tuesday.

Apart from the existing 72 sanitation inspectors, an additional 128 such inspectors will be deputed to keep a tab on the defaulters.

The civic body has also floated tenders inviting bids from housing societies and other agencies to take up the task of garbage collection from households. Owners will have to pay a minimum of Rs 30 per month for availing this service which will rid them of dumping garbage at identified points.

PMC is also in the process of purchasing over 1,900 large-size dustbins which will be placed at identified points for garbage collection work.

"Once we have large dustbins in place and the primary garbage collection work is formalised, the corporation would launch a drive to impose penalties on defaulters," Singh said.

However, the PMC is yet to identify a site to dumo the collected garbage.

"This is definitely a big problem and we have already drawn the attention of the urban development department towards it," Singh said. He, however, claimed that the corporation will not wait for land allocation to launch the special drive.

"We will use private land for dumping garbage till land is allocated to us," he said.
