Answer:

Situational Irony

Explanation:

Irony; involving a situation in which actions have an effect that is opposite from what was intended so that the outcome is contrary to what was expected. The Department of sanitation is responsible for collecting and disposing of garbage and keeping things clean. It's ironic that they have a rat infestation considering they're known for cleanliness.

Hope that helped.

The given situation is a type of irony.

Irony

  • The irony is the difference between how things appear and how they are. The term comes from the Latin word ironia, signifying "faked obliviousness." Storytellers of all stripes use incongruity as a scholarly gadget to make strain, humor, or as the focal pride in a plot.
  • Irony includes what is happening in which activities have an impact that is inverse based on what was planned so the result is in opposition to what was generally anticipated. The Department of sterilization is liable for gathering and discarding trash and keeping things clean. Ironicly they have a rodent pervasion considering they're known for tidiness.
  • The Department of disinfection is answerable for getting freed or forestalling the spread of rats,yet it's in their area of expertise where rodents swarm.
