Mismanagement of waste


Trivandrum is a very active city, healthy as well. It's very refreshing to see that people here enjoy perspiring a bit in the morning to make their day productive.Almost every park and ground in the city, buzz with activity early in the morning. Morning walkers and joggers take it to the barren roads and go about their business in peace. It is however saddening to note that this health conscious mass of TVM is being let down by the authorities. Shabbily packed plastic bags are strewn all over the roads. Rabid dogs tear and drag them all over the place, searching for left-overs. This is a very common sight in TVM these days. The people affected by the Vilapilsala waste plant had caused a big hue and cry which put the corporation into a dilemma. Now the corporation is finding it difficult to clean up the ever increasing city waste.
This is one problem of living in a city. Ensuing the monsoons, the city could slip into an epidemic catastrophe. Luckily for people in TVM, this year's monsoons are weak and so their health remains stronger than expected.
