The Municipal Corporation of Chintamani has always been the first to take measures to give Chintamani a face-lift. Chintamani is one of the first towns around which banned the use of plastic bags/covers. With the cooperation of the people it has successfully weeded out the plastic bag/cover menace from the streets of Chintamani. Now it has taken a stride towards sensible and responsible way of disposing the wastes. This is one of the initiatives under the project called " ನನ್ನ ಚಿಂತಾಮಣಿ ನಗರ , ಸ್ವಚ್ಛ ಸುಂದರ ನಗರ ". The citizens are requested to give away the wastes to the 'Sthree Shakti Workers'(doing a thankless job) in two seperate containers, one with the wet wastes which are biodegradable and the other one with all the recyclable trash. To bring about the awareness regarding this, the municipality is conducting roadshows in all the wards of Chintamani. Dr. M. Rame Gowda, the municipal commissioner of Chintamani says, " if we do not take drastic measures to dispose the waste appropriately then the situation will get out-of-control. Chintamani itself generates 30 tonnes of waste everyday, imagine the heap it could form if it's not disposed properly". Alarming isn't it?
The municipal authorities are putting up shelter and chairs and are also showing a documentary on the issue. All these things comes for a cost. But the people are not embracing this new initiative. The response to these camps has been lukewarm. But, the initiative will eventually see good results.
If it has to reach more people then they(the authorities) have to beam the same documentary in the theatres, or even better, seek the divine help. Since people flock to the worship places there cant be a better place than that to bring about awareness on sanity. After-all, the next thing to Godliness is cleanliness.
