DSCC continues waste removal for 2nd day

"Like the first day of Eid-ul-Azha, activities to remove waste from sacrificial animals and temporary cattle markets are being carried out vigorously on the second day as well. We are committed to removing all waste within the shortest possible time to ensure comfort for city residents,” DSCC Administrator Abdus Salam said.

In the morning, he visited the temporary cattle market at Shahjahanpur Railway Colony and inspected the ongoing waste removal activities. During the visit, he instructed the officials and workers concerned to complete the operation as quickly as possible.

Abdus Salam said the waste removal target for the second day of Eid has been fixed at 11,776 tonnes and expressed hope that the target will be achieved within the stipulated timeframe through coordinated efforts of conservancy workers, transport workers and the relevant departments.

Officials and workers of DSCC’s Waste Management Department and other relevant sections have been working round the clock in the field to provide city dwellers with a clean and hygienic environment.

According to the DSCC, a total of 14,814 tonnes of sacrificial waste had been dumped at the Matuail landfill site by Eid day midnight.

To ensure quick waste disposal during Eid-ul-Azha, it has deployed additional manpower, vehicles, containers and cleaning equipment across its areas. A special monitoring team has also been working round the clock to oversee the entire operation, reports UNB.
