Denizens feel the heat as the contract municipal workers’ Statewide indefinite strike enters the 7th day on January 1 (Monday), with heaps of garbage piling up on the city streets.
According to an auto driver from Ajith Singh Nagar, garbage has not been lifted in the area since last Monday.
Atluri Prasad, proprietor of a restaurant in the city, has said the workers’ strike affected hotels and restaurants. “The garbage is being lifted only on alternate days. Other times, we are making our own arrangements,” he said.
