The entity is expected to manage the city’s growing garbage
The State Cabinet’s decision to establish a separate entity – Bengaluru Solid Waste Management (SWM) Company – to manage the city’s growing garbage has received aa mixed response.
While Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) officials point out that the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) will be a focussed agency to manage SWM, which will help with quick decisions and implementation, SWM experts disagree. Pointing out to the organisational structure of the SPV, they said it is highly bureaucratised, and not very different from the BBMP.
