Dharna held demanding relocation of dumping yard in Karimnagar

On Tuesday, a group of protesters from the Telangana Rakshana Sena staged a dharna at a dumping yard located near the bypass road in Karimnagar. The demonstrators aimed to compel the relocation of the dumping yard to a location outside of the town, citing concerns over the adverse impact on public health. The dharna was spearheaded by G. Hariprasad, the district in-charge of the Telangana Rakshana Sena.

During the protest, the party's leaders called upon the government to expedite the relocation of the dumping yard and implement a comprehensive plan to clear the existing garbage heaps at the site through biomining. They also urged the adoption of scientifically sound waste management practices to enhance sanitation and protect public health within the jurisdiction of the Karimnagar Municipal Corporation.
