With mounds of garbage increasing at the waste processing units at Kannahalli, Seegehalli and Subbarayanapalya, local communities have been up in arms against the BBMP.
On Tuesday, city in-charge Minister R. Ramalinga Reddy chaired a meeting to discuss the issue.
He directed officials to ensure that odour control measures are taken up in earnest and that the processing units are better maintained. He also directed them to ensure that only wet waste is sent to the processing units.
S.T. Somashekhar, Yeshwantpur MLA, instructed BBMP officials to regularly monitor the processing units.
BBMP Commissioner G. Kumar Naik said that CCTV cameras have been fitted at these units and engineers have been deputed to monitor the units. He assured the Minister of taking up odour control measures at the earliest.
