Based on a complaint filed by Pranay Dubey of Ecity Rising, a citizen’s collective, the Deputy Chief Minister Dr Ashwath Narayan has directed the BBMP authorities to take appropriate action to mitigate the plight of residents. Sadly, the BBMP is yet to acknowledge the problem let alone address it even after incessant reminders and follow-ups.

In spite of multiple complaints raised, the BBMP SWM Special Commissioner Randeep D was quoted in The New Indian Express as saying that the plant will function as the court has given the directive to run it.
