MARGAO
The Margao Municipal Council began lifting the waste rejects from the Sonsodo waste treatment moments after the deputy Chief Minister Vijai Sardesai issued instructions to do so.
Fomento provided MMC with the equipment to fill the trucks with the rejects. The MMC will continue the work till the plant is cleared of the waste.
Chief Officer Sidhivinayak Naik, however, told The Goan that the MMC has decided against setting up the waste sorting station on the PDA pick-up stand land. Instead, he said the waste will be taken to the Old Market garage and then transported to the plant after sorting. “We have decided not to sort out the waste at the PDA pick-up stand site for a host of reasons. The waste will now be sorted out at the Old Market garage,” he added.
