AHMEDABAD: Since its birth as the youngest municipal corporation in the state, Gandhinagar, the capital of Gujarat, has not had an official scientifically developed landfill site.
It had been dumping garbage on the bank of the Sabarmati in Sector 30 for a decade now, illegally. The irony is that despite having the state secretariat, the capital’s municipal corporation was left in the lurch for securing land to develop a legal, environmentally safe landfill site.
