Campaign to be intensified

Each house to be followed-up over four consecutive days

To encourage more households to segregate their waste at source, Urbaser-Sumeet, the company engaged by Greater Chennai Corporation for collection and transportation of waste in seven zones, has launched an intensive door-to-door campaign.

The company handles the conservancy work in two zones in the Central region and all the five zones in the Southern region. These seven zones accounted for nearly 50% of the waste generated in the city.

V.R. Hari Balaji, head of the information, communication and education department, Urbaser Sumeet, said as part of the new campaign, the company employees will visit each household on four consecutive days.
