Cantt Station trash

Published February 11, 2016

EVERYDAY I notice heaps of garbage on the road outside Cantt Station while going to university. The piles of trash keep on increasing day by day.

Why are the authorities concerned so careless about picking up garbage? How can garbage be dumped so carelessly on the side of a main road? Who assigned sanitation workers to carry out this disgusting work?

I request the authorities concerned to make sure that its sanitation staff keeps the vicinity of Cantt Station clean at all times.
