RAJSHAHI: According to its commitment of waste disposal as early as possible, Rajshahi City Corporation (RCC) removed wastes of sacrificial animals within midnight followed by the day of Eid-Ul-Azha, reports BSS. “We were determined to safe removal of sacrificial animals waste within 24 hours in the city but the job has been done much before,” said Nizam-ul-Azim, Mayor-in-Charge of RCC yesterday.
He said more than 1,400 conservancy workers were engaged to remove the waste. Under special arrangement, 12 trollies were connected with six engines and around 850 metric tons wastes were removed from all 30 wards through eight hydraulic machines.
The city corporation had fixed 254 places for slaughtering sacrificial animals in the Eid-ul Azha in 30 Wards of the city.
Highlighting the aspects of safe and timely removal and disposal of animal waste he said adequate steps were adopted for motivating the city dwellers in this regard.
Mayor Nizam-ul Azim said collective effort of all government and non-government organisations concerned has become a crucial issue to control the community level disease particularly anthrax as its risks are increasing in the country.
