What happened

Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

The Bombay High Court questioned the city's cleanliness standards, calling for civic officials to take stricter action against littering near the Kanjurmarg dumping ground. In response, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation is expanding the use of steel nets in nullahs to curb garbage dumping. However, a new pilot waste collection system in eastern suburbs has resulted in uncollected garbage rotting on roads for up to three days.
