(Mumbai Garbage Scam) It has been repeatedly highlighted through democracy that contractors are delaying garbage collection in Mumbai and suburbs. There is a strong stench due to the pile of garbage at a stone's throw from two hospitals and a school in Byculla.
This results in garbage being collected early in the morning, but sometimes this garbage is not collected. Even though the garbage collection vehicles are in disrepair, they still have to be used, according to the municipality. However, until the citizens' issues are resolved, the garbage issue will be raised through democratic means.
