UP civic polls: In Ghaziabad localities, voters torn between Yogi factor and poor sanitation

“This drain next to my shop is choked with cow dung and no one comes to clean it. Some locals here own buffaloes and dump waste just like that,” said Ajay Garg, a 45-year-old hardware shop owner in Ghaziabad’s Roop Nagar.

With overflowing drains, filth on streets, Garg’s locality is just one among the 100 wards in Ghaziabad district that will go to polls on May 11 in the second phase of the urban local body polls in Uttar Pradesh.
