Kathmandu, June 7
Garbage dumping in Banchare Danda has been obstructed by locals of Sisadole. The agitating locals obstructed garbage dumping in Banchare Danda on Tuesday morning, saying that they did not agree with the agreement reached between the government and representatives of the garbage dumping area.
Representatives from the Ministry of Urban Development, Kathmandu Metropolitan City
(KMC), Kakani Rural Municipality of Nuwakot, and Dhunibesi Municipality of Dhading reached an agreement on Tuesday to dispose of garbage generated in the Kathmandu Valley.
Garbage collection in KMC, Lalitpur Metropolis and other municipalities has been affected since last week due to local obstruction. For several days, waste from Kathmandu and the
surrounding areas has been piled up on roads.
