LITTERBUGS BEWARE | Two decades after the last revision, the BMC has rolled out updated SWM bye-laws featuring steeper fines & stricter penalties
After years of struggling to curb public littering through the ineffective Clean-Up Marshal drive, the BMC has finally taken a tougher stance. Nearly two decades after the last revision, the civic body has rolled out updated Solid Waste Management (SWM) bye-laws featuring steeper fines and stricter penalties.
The new regulations have received final approval from Municipal Commissioner Bhushan Gagrani. Beginning next week, junior officers will be officially empowered to enforce the rules.
