[Resolved]  Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation [GVMC] — Dumping of Garbage in the Midst Of Residential area in green belt

Address:

Andhra Pradesh

I am a resident of Pithapuram colony In Visakhapatnam ward No.23. For the past many years we are suffering the menace of garbage of the entire colony is being dumped in the open in front of our house, an area which is a green belt in the Master Plan.There is a municipal market adjacent to this dumping area, and the Animal waste along with the market waste is also thrown in this place. The garbage is cleared once in 10 days by the sanitation departmente, who use the services of a dumper to clear this, which is self explanatory for the amount of garbage dumped in this piece of land. The residents have brought it to the notice of the Concerned sanitary stafff/Inspector but they have turned a deaf ear to our representation. We request you to help us in getting a permanent solution to this problem, by developing this green belt, which is the official status of this piece of land which is centrally located in the colony and avert spread of any epidemic in the future. A visit to this dumping ground by the Chief Medicalnhealth officer of GVMC will make him realize the seriousness of the issue, as the stench emanating from the Animal waste is difficult to bear even for a few minutes, The Plight of the residents who live in the neighbourhood is no exxageration.
