Residents demand action as garbage piles up in Yousufguda
Residents raise a stink as mounds of garbage pile up at Yousufguda · thehansindia.com

People who live in a place called Yousufguda are upset because big piles of trash have been sitting on their roads for many days.

The trash includes plastic bags, old clothes, food scraps, flowers, leaves, and tree branches.

Nobody has come to clean it up, and it smells bad.

The garbage makes it hard for people to walk or drive on the road.

Some of the trash has spread onto the street, leaving less space for cars.

The piles of garbage can attract mosquitoes, flies, and stray animals, which is not healthy for people.

When it rains, the trash could spread even more and block the drains.

The residents are asking the city officials to remove the trash right away.

They also want regular cleaning and punishment for people who dump garbage on the roads.
