Dimapur Municipal Council (DMC) has noted that some people under its jurisdiction, in complete violation of its order/rules, were practicing the act of throwing waste on the roadside as well as in the dustbins/collection points even after municipal workers lift the waste in the morning.
In a circular, DMC administrator Albert Ezung has therefore issued certain instructions to be followed by all the residents/shopkeepers/business establishments/institutions in order to keep the city clean.
DMC has directed that no garbage/waste shall be thrown/deposited on the road side other than the designated waste bin or collection point. No garbage shall be thrown/deposited in any dustbin/collection point once it is cleared by DMC in the morning.
Further, DMC has instructed that the garbage/waste of the respective household/shop/business establishment or any other Institutions where door to door collection system is not been adopted are to be thrown/deposited in the designated Waste Bin/Point before 6am and after 6pm.
DMC has, hence, requested all responsible to strictly follow the instructions and extend full cooperation and support to DMC to make the Dimapur city as waste/garbage free.
DMC has cautioned that anyone found violating the rules shall be penalized with fine and other legal course of action as per provisions of law.
