Twee dagen na offering dieren tijdens Eid in Dhaka (Bangladesh) afvoeren verstopt met dierlijke restanten - Overal in stad bloed en botten

Stink spreads from animal wastes

30-11-2009 Staff Reporter, The New Nation, Bangladesh


Stinky smell is still spreading from the municipal waste scattered in different nook and corner of the city streets despite the passage of two days following the Eid day.

Dhaka City Corporation (DCC) which made a commitment to the city dwellers that its conservancy employees would clear the streets immediate after sacrifice of animals, has failed to fulfil its commitment.

Most of the city drains have become choked up with the waste of sacrificial animals. Even roads and streets of the posh residential areas were not properly taken care of by the employees of the conservancy department.

Some people were seen passing through some of the roads putting handkerchief on their nose.

Stench coming out from the temporary cattle markets of the city as those places did not get due attention of DCC employees. Dried blood of animals and bones of sacrificed animals were lying scattered in different areas.

DCC waste disposal lorries were, however, seen busy in disposal of municipal waste from some VIP areas . The attention of conservancy employees, as it appears , remains focussed on certain areas where VIPs live ignoring vast parts of city areas. It is time to give due attention to all areas so that municipal waste does not spread germs of diseases, it is felt.
