NOIDA: A day after TOI reported that Sector 20 was littered with garbage across its lanes and parks for over a month, the Noida Authority rushed into action to clean up the mess on Wednesday.
Residents noticed Authority officials visit the sector and take stock of garbage lined up early in the day. By 2.30pm the entire sector was cleared of garbage into tractors. “Labourers were still working late in the afternoon to clean up whatever little was left,” said Suresh Tiwari, vice-president, Sector 20 RWA.
Tiwari said residents had been braving the apathy of Authority officials till the press took up their cause. “After TOI’s report, the sector has been cleaned up. We can now look forward to fresh air and stress-free morning walks,” said Tiwari.
When asked, deputy director Rajendra Kumar said they were busy pruning trees so there was a delay in cleaning up the sector. “There will be no further problems in garbage disposal ,” Kumar assured.
