Take care about controlling air pollution: DCM Parameshwar
Bengaluru, November 22: Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwar on Thursday honoured the Hasiru Dala Innovation team which bagged the prize in ‘Design Bengaluru Challenge’ for preparing the best project on waste management.
Presenting the prizes to the winners at a programme at a hotel here, the DCM said that a few years ago, Bengaluru had just 30 lakh population and now, it has crossed more than one crore. With the increase of population, problems were also multiplied. Issues like garbage disposal, traffic control, water supply, power supply and others have created more problems. He has discussed with the corporate companies to tackle them scientifically. Some people have prepared some good projects. If efforts were not made to find solutions to those problems, the impact would be more in coming days, he said.
As the air pollution level has reached beyond control in New Delhi, it has planned to ban the movement of private vehicles. If the government took such a decision in Bengaluru, the people would revolt against it. So, instead of reaching to the level of banning the vehicles, efforts should be taken to control the air pollution immediately. In view of this, it was planned to stop the registration of new vehicles for next two years and it was being reviewed, he said.
There were some good projects in Design Bengaluru Challenge. The winning team has prepared the best waste disposal project and steps would be taken to implement it, he said.
