At a time when citizens and experts in Bengaluru have been demanding the closure of waste processing plants and landfills, the State government has decided to carry the heaps of refuse to Ramanagara, besides Bengaluru Urban and Bengaluru Rural districts.
Sources in Ramanagara say a park will likely be set up at Bidadi, located about 32 km from Bengaluru. This comes even as there has been fierce opposition from the locals to the existing landfills and waste processing plants.
