The city’s solid waste management capacity and handling of construction and demolition debris is set to be augmented with the approval of new plants which will shore up its cleanliness quotient.
The legacy waste of nearly 3 lakh tones accumulated at the Sewage Farm in Vidyaranyapuram that has emerged as an eyesore dragging the city’s overall ranking under Swachh Bharat survey, is also set to be addressed in due course.
This was stated by the outgoing Mayor Sunanda Palanetra – whose tenure ends on Thursday - and Lakshmikanth Reddy, Commissioner, Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) here on Thursday.
