Latur: BJP workers on hunger strike against poor garbage disposal management

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers went on a hunger strike on Wednesday in protest of the poor garbage disposal management in Latur, Maharashtra.

Former corporator and local BJP leader Ajit Patil Kavhekar claimed the Latur municipal corporation had ignored cleaning of clogged drains ahead of monsoon, which is affecting the health of citizens.

Latur Municipal Corporation had secured the first rank in the country in the Swachh survey during the BJP’s tenure. But the Congress ignored cleanliness of city after coming to power in the civic body, he alleged. Civic officials cannot be reached for comment.
