Villagers lock up municipal officials on inspection tour, offer them food mixed with garbage to show them what happens in their area every day when uncovered trucks carrying waste race past their kitchens
Villagers on the outskirts of Bangalore locked up senior municipal officials yesterday and offered them garbage to eat to give them an idea of what the village was going through.
The officials transport garbage to Mavallipura, near Hesaraghatta, in open trucks. The garbage flies into village homes, and often lands in cooking vessels.
Outraged villagers stopped the officials yesterday and pushed them into a room. They locked them up, and then fetched food mixed with garbage. "Eat this," they ordered.
