Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC) Commissioner G. Srijana has instructed the Sanitary Inspectors to ensure all the big and small shops have red and blue dustbins on the premises to segregate wastes. She asked the officials to impose fines if they do not maintain dustbin for the first and not to renew their licence if caught for the second time.
Taking part in a review meet with Zonal Commissioners, Public Health officials and a few others here on Tuesday, Ms. Srijana asked the officials to put in effort to make Visakhapatnam waste-free. She said that it is the responsibility of the owners to ensure wastes that are dumped in their vacant lands are cleaned. She said that the civic body would impose fines of ₹10,000 for the first time and ₹15,000 for the second time. Further
