1THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: On Saturday, when the CPM launches 'Suchitwa Keralam' campaign across the state and many local bodies ruled by the LDF pledge support to the mission, there is a sense of déjà vu.
Exactly seven years ago, on Kerala Piravi Day, the state government embarked on an ambitious mission - Litter Free Kerala. The LDF government then had a perfect plan with a 10-point agenda that was to be implemented in three years.
Yet nothing really worked out.
A campaign for keeping our cities clean is not an idea should not become a ritual. The campaign should be able to conclude successfully, in a given time-frame, by putting in place a sustainable solution. A recent study on Kerala's garbage menace by R Ajayakumar Varma, former executive director of Suchitwa Mission, estimates the per capita generation of municipal solid waste in the state as 242 grams. The issue is more serious in cities and as per a 2007 study by Water Sanitation Programme South East Asia, per capita solid waste generation in the cities in Kerala is 400 gram per day.
