Garbage to be dumped by using force
Plagued by unending series of stoppages by the local people, the Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) is preparing to dump garbage at the landfill site in Sisdole by using police force, if necessary. The KMC is preparing to invoke the Essential Service Act, which forbids obstruction in collection, transport and management of garbage. "Earlier, too, the government had talked about invoking this Act. But now, it will be strictly enforced,' KMC chief executive Dinesh Thapaliya told Nepal Samacharpatra.
