YSRCP floor leader in the Vijayawada Municipal Corporation council A. Venkata Satyanarayana said that the user charges on the door-to-door garbage collection are being collected as per the Centre’s Swachh Bharat and State’s Clean Andhra Pradesh initiatives.
In a press conference here on Thursday, Mr. Satyanarayana said the municipal council had approved the resolution to collect user charges from the households generating garbage in the city.
He said it was to streamline door-to-door garbage collection and avoid indiscriminate dumping and for the same reason the VMC was distributing three different coloured bins to collect segregated waste from households.

Bangladesh is witnessing renewed political tension after the killing of Sharif Osman Hadi, a young leader who emerged during the July–August 2024 uprising that led to the removal of Sheikh Hasina. Hadi later headed the radical group Inquilab Mancha and was campaigning ahead of the 2026 parliamentary election when he was shot in Dhaka. His death has triggered protests, diplomatic friction with India, and concerns over rising political violence as Bangladesh heads towards elections under an interim government.
