The chief of Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), Ajoy Mehta, is once again planning to start a trend, which earlier failed to yield the desired results. Just the way corporators used to go on study tours sponsored by the civic body, now ward officers will have to tour different cities to learn about their solid waste management techniques.
Earlier this month, Mehta had instructed some of the officers to visit cities like Ahmedabad, Goa, Indore and Bangalore and find out how they managed their wastes. They have also been asked to prepare reports on the visits and present them by next month.
