“The local residents of Mittaganahalli and Kannur of Mahadevapura Assembly Constituency met me and lamented that solid waste was being dumped by BBMP in their surrounding areas, which was causing them many kinds of problems and requested to resolve them at the earliest,” said MLA Manjula Limbavali in her post on Facebook.
In response to this request, today, along with former minister and chairman of Mahadevapura Task Force Shri Aravind Limbavali, inspection of the Solid Waste Disposal Unit was conducted to verify the actual situation, she added.
