It is indeed sad to note many high profile innovative
initiatives instituted within the city die its own natural death within a very
short time. These bins, the toilet system etc are straight forward examples.
This has to be studied by the authorities and reason to be found out, whether
they are not accepted by public or whether technical defaults are the causes
for failure.
As regards to waste bins, it is a hygiene concern as many
maintenance staff bring down the waste and then spread them down in front of
the dust bins before they deposit it into the tall waste bins. They do it,
either to segregate the metallic or saleable items from the waste or for
several other reasons. Whatever it is, the action results in spreading the area
with waste sediments which remain there till a cleaning unit comes and washes
away.
A closer look at this issue has to be done by the
authorities to keep the city neat and clean.
