Lucknow needs great cleanliness drive to fulfill dream of our Government of Svachcha Bharat. People throwing garbage outside their houses, on roads or public places should be prosecuted irrespective of status, position cast or creed. They should be asked to handover garbage directly to sweeper or wait till he comes that day or other day.
Garbage treatment plants should not only be installed but made functional to clear the garbage. Municipal corporation should hire more vehicles to collect garbage from different storage places at very frequent intervals rather than weekly or fortnightly.
Encroachment from different places should be removed strictly and vendors should be provided proper places so that their livelihood does not suffer.
Unauthorized constructions should be dealt with harshly and not like the one carried few days earlier that call from some Mr CHOWHAN made the staff gone to remove encroachments return empty handed.
All the buildings who have taken permission to make basements for parking and are using for commercial purposes must be identified and asked to abide by laws and commitments and if they do not convert basements to parking spaces their buildings should be dealt with proper laws.
Urination and spitting in public places should be made an offense and offenders fined.
Provision for Sulabh Shauchalyas should be made in each locality and properly advertised so that people of that area know about it and kind guide the passers requiring that.
