Biharsharif city is struggling with a garbage crisis due to a strike by sanitation workers. The city's waste management system has come to a halt, with around 250 tons of waste accumulating on the streets daily.
The strike, which began recently, involves around 600 to 700 sanitation workers employed by the Biharsharif Municipal Corporation. They are demanding the fulfillment of their three-point charter of demands. As a result, the city's waste collection and disposal system has ground to a halt. The situation has raised concerns about the potential outbreak of diseases. The accumulation of garbage on the streets is not only an eyesore but also poses a serious health risk to the city's residents.
