Mumbai Residents Share Concerns on Draft Waste Management Bye-Laws

The city of Mumbai asked its residents what they thought about how the city handles trash.

People said they were worried about not having enough places to sort trash, irregular trash collection, and not enough trash cans.

They also talked about using compost systems and wanted smaller composting machines.

About half of the people agreed with a fee for collecting trash, but almost as many disagreed.

Most people also felt fines for littering should only be used if there were enough trash cans and toilets.

The city gets a lot of trash every day, and they are working on new rules to make things better.
