Govt. sets up company to manage Bengaluru’s waste
The Hindu
With the State’s richest civic body, the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), finding it difficult to manage the growing city’s solid waste, the State Cabinet on Wednesday decided to establish a separate entity, the Bengaluru Solid Waste Management Company.
It will be responsible for collecting, transporting, and processing waste to produce energy. While the BBMP will invest 51% in the newly formed organisation, the State government will contribute the remaining. The additional chief secretary will be the CEO of the company.
