Editor,
This to bring to the attention of the Itanagar Municipal Corporation the matter of piling up of garbage along the P Sector road, near the PCCF office, which is just 20-30 metre away from the national highway.
Since the first week of August, when I shifted to this colony, the first thing I encounter every morning is the foul smell and the dirty looks of garbage. Initially, I thought the authority would clean it, but sadly, the garbage problem continues.
This garbage not only causes foul smell, but it also presents a dirty mess in the colony. Mosquitoes are likely to breed in it, and might transmit communicable diseases through stray dogs eating waste items.
Except for this piling up of garbage, P Sector is one of the cleanest sectors in the ICR, as it also leads to the private residence of union minister Kiren Rijiju and many important offices.
I would like to appeal to the Itanagar Municipal Corporation, especially the ward corporator, to kindly direct staffers and send a garbage truck to clean the garbage before it spreads.
I also appeal to the residents of the colony to throw garbage on routine – ie early morning or night – as it is our moral responsibility to cooperate with the authority in keeping the colony clean.
