Chandigarh councilors to visit Goa to study waste mgmt

After spending crores on study tours within the country and abroad, councilors and officials of the Chandigarh civic body are scheduled to take another junket — this time to Goa, at an estimated cost of Rs 14.72 lakh for a four-day trip — to study the state’s waste management project.

Sources said that an agenda in this regard will be tabled in the General House meet of the civic body that is scheduled to take place on July 29.

Interestingly, the councilors from Chandigarh have already so far visited the top three cleanest cities as per the Swachh Survekshan 2021 — Indore in Madhya Pradesh, Surat in Gujarat, and Vijaywada in Andhra Pradesh.

Baljinder Singh Bittu, the chairman of FOSWAC, said, “The councilors and officials look for new places to enjoy excursions on public funds. Yet these tours yield no results.”

He stated that the councilors had decided to undertake an in-person visit to Goa, despite all the required information being available on the internet.
