The lives of garbage collection workers in the Mumbai Municipal Corporation are at risk, and even after the garbage collection vehicle contract has ended, the contract has been awarded to the same person for 15 years. Who is this favored brother with the 3000 Crore contract? This question was raised by Lokshahi Marathi. However, even after Lokshahi Marathi's report, the question arises whether the state government is pretending to be asleep.
According to the Mumbai Municipal Corporation, there is a rule for garbage collection vehicles to operate three times a day: morning, afternoon, and evening. However, most of the time, these vehicles are only operated once in the morning.
In the afternoon and evening, these vehicles are not seen collecting garbage in many parts of Mumbai. There are also allegations that the afternoon and evening rounds of garbage collection vehicles are only shown on paper.
