The garbage collected from around 10 villages is dumped on a piece of land adjacent to a farmland and an irrigation pond
Uchimedu farmers are an angry lot after civic officials started indiscriminate dumping of solid waste on a piece of land close to their paddy fields and a lake on which they depend for irrigation.
Despite objections from farmers, the waste collected from around 10 villages in the Bahour, Kuruvinatham, Kirumampakkam, Kannikoil, Manapet and Madhikrishnapuram areas is dumped on the land adjacent to the paddy fields and 10-15 metres away from the Uchimedu pond.
