Villagers up in arms over dumping of garbage

During second week of last month, with police protection, some vehicles moved from Sangareddy to Cheryal village in Kandi mandal. The purpose was to dump the garbage as locals were objecting to the town’s garbage being dumped near their village.

The garbage, brought in some vehicles, was dumped on road-side, despite protests by local residents. The vehicles, after dumping of the waste, returned under police protection.

There are huge pits to the size of 40 feet to 50 feet, in some cases even bigger in size, dug as part of legal and illegal mining for the past few years. The officials of Sangareddy municipal authorities thought of filling those pits with the garbage being generated from the district headquarters town.
