Expenditure on Transport

NUMBER OF MAJOR COLLECTION POINTS IN EACH WARD IS FIXED BY THE SUPERVISORS IN ADHOC MANNER ACCORDING TO PRACTICE & CONVENIENCE.

IN SOME WARDS, POPULATION AND GENERATION OF WASTE IS LESS BUT THE COLLECTION POINTS ARE MORE WHEREAS IN MANY OTHERS, SITUATION JUST REVERSE.

TO SET UP A NEW POINT IS VERYDIFFICULT FOR GNN. THERE IS LOT OF PRESSURE FOR SHIFTING OR ABOLISHING OF EXISTING POINTS.

IN ADDITION TO IDENTIFIED POINTS, SEVERAL TEMPORARY POINTS ARE ALSO CREATED FOR COLLECTION AT THE WARD LEVEL FOR WHICH NO RECORD IS AVAILABLE.

IN ABSENCE OF ANY WEIGH BRIDGE FOR WEIGHMENT; EXACT INFORMATION ABOUT ACTUAL WASTE

TRANSPORTATION IS NOT AVAILABLE. ONLY GUESS WORK PREVAILS WHILE GIVING ACCOUNT OF WASTE REMOVED ON PARTICULAR DAY.

MAJOR DRAINS ARE FIRST FILLED WITH WASTE FROM THE STREETS AND LATER ON ARE REQUIRED TO BE CLEANED UNDER ANNUAL DESILTING PROGRAMME.

NUMBER OF REGULAR OPERATORS IS MUCH LESS THAN REQUIRED. MOST OF THE REQUIREMENT IS MET FROM TEMPORARY STAFF FROM WORKER’S CATEGORY HAVING DRIVING LICENSE.

RATIO OF ONE DUMPER PLACER CARRIER TO CONTAINER IS 1:24, WHICH IS ON MUCH HIGHER SIDE.
