Gurgaon Installs CCTV Cameras to Improve Waste Management
Imagine Gurgaon is getting a lot of new eyes to watch over its trash!
The city has put up many cameras at places where garbage is collected and at the big trash dump.
These cameras help the city see where the garbage trucks go, stop anyone from secretly dumping trash where they shouldn't, and make sure everything runs smoothly.
These cameras also have bright lights to help see at night!
The city collects a huge amount of trash every day, and these cameras will help to manage it better.
It's like having helpers watching the garbage to keep the city clean!
45 CCTV cameras installed at garbage collection points and Bandhwari landfill site.
The system tracks garbage trucks and prevents illegal dumping.
26 smart floodlights installed for better night visibility.
Cameras integrated with GMDA's Integrated Command and Control Centre for real-time surveillance.
