Reckless waste dumping in Vaigai continues despite Madras HC directives

MADURAI: Indiscriminate and rampant dumping of garbage in the Vaigai in Madurai has highlighted the absence of frequent cleaning and lack of monitoring by the officials.
Garbage dumping is a very prevalent issue in the Vaigai, which flows for nearly 12 km under the city corporation’s limits. Waste is dumped at several points such as the AV Bridge and Kuruvikaran Road, among other places. Apart from household waste, commercial waste is also rampantly dumped in the river.
