Permission Granted to CMC to Dump Garbage in ….

Colombo Municipal Council (CMC) has applied to the  Kesbewa Magistrate today seeking  permission to dump garbage collected from Colombo at Karadiyana in Piliyandala on a temporary basis. The  Kesbewa Magistrate has granted permission .

Earlier, the Government said it would temporarily use Karadiyana and Dompe to dispose garbage collected in Colombo.

 CMC Commissioner V.K. Anura said the CMC would dump garbage not only at the Karadiyana but also at several other places and  refused to reveal the exact locations where garbage would be dumped saying it would provoke the people in the respective areas against the move. He said the CMC would begin dumping garbage from today.
