Champawat News reports that Patti Nagar Panchayat has received approval to install a plastic compactor for waste disposal. The project budget is set at 7.50 lakh. The plan, approved from the Ring-Fenced Accounts under the Urban Development Directorate, will enable the collection of wet and dry waste separately. In addition to the compactor, the DM has directed the installation of segregation boxes on waste vehicles and a GPS system. The objective is to ensure separation of wet and dry waste at the point of collection, improving transparency in the waste-collection process. The AIS GPS integration will allow precise monitoring of routes and collection times for the waste-collection vehicles, enhancing accountability and efficiency.
