Answer 1

Ans: Local Authority has a dedicated team of skilled & trained workers & fleet of waste collection trucks. Men on duty moves with each truck for waste & garbage collections from every street of each ward. They segregate on spot as much possible like dry waste or wet garbage. They separate the plastic & edible / food item in different large bins. However most of times residents only manage at their end & dump in respective Bins at the end corner of each street. After collecting from all over area they finally dump whole waste at main dump yard outside the city.
