A good Swachh ranking brought cheer to the civic body even as several projects were delayed by the pandemic
The year gone by was a mixed bag for the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation, which saw several of its projects getting stalled due to the COVID-19 pandemic but still managing to score well in the Swachh Survekshan rankings and climbing back into the top-10 cleanest cities in India.

VISAKHAPATNAM: Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC) has made a beginning to make the city dustbin-free. As part of it, the civic body has removed dumper bins in 20 per cent of the city area where door-to-door collection vehicles have been deployed.
GVMC commissioner G Srijana said they don’t want to jump the gun to make Vizag dustbin free in one go. When there are 150 mini vans moving to collect garbage from all households, what is the need to install bins? she asked.
However, the places from where the bins have been removed may become vulnerable points if people continue to dump garbage. To discourage them from doing so, the civic body will undertake an IEC campaign and impose penalties, she said.
