Bengaluru MLAs Demand Rs 800 Crore Amid Garbage Crisis

  • Karnataka Deputy CM DK Shivakumar accused Bengaluru MLAs of blackmailing the government over the city's garbage crisis.
  • Shivakumar claimed a 'big mafia' controls the city's solid waste management, with contractors quoting prices 85% higher than standard rates.
  • He proposed acquiring land in Kolar, Nelamangala, Kanakapura Road, or near forest land for waste disposal.
  • Two sites have been shortlisted for waste disposal: one near NICE Road and another close to Doddaballapur.
  • Shivakumar vowed to break the stronghold of the garbage mafia and implement a sustainable waste management system.
