Garbage and open urination irk commuters on JBS-Parade Ground route
People who take the bus in a part of Hyderabad called the JBS-Parade Ground route are very unhappy.
There is a big pile of trash near the bus stop, with plastic bags, papers, and old food.
Some people are also using the open space near the road as a toilet.
This makes the whole area smell very bad.
The bad smell bothers people while they wait for the bus.
Women, older people, and children are the most upset about it.
The trash also attracts mosquitoes and flies, which can make people sick.
People who use the bus want the trash removed right away.
They also want signs that tell people not to pee in public.
They hope the area can be cleaned up so everyone can wait for the bus comfortably.
Huge piles of garbage, including plastic covers, papers, food waste and packing materials, have accumulated opposite the bus stop near Parade Ground.
Open urination by men between garbage piles and next to walls is filling the area with a foul smell.
Commuters heading to Hakimpet, Suchitra, Balnagar and Resalabad use this route and endure the stench while waiting for buses.
Women, elderly people and children are especially suffering due to the stench, and residents warn of health risks from mosquitoes and flies.
Commuters are demanding immediate garbage removal, warning boards against open urination, increased surveillance and a clean bus stop-metro route.
