A statewide sanitation workers’ strike has disrupted services in Visakhapatnam since Tuesday, prompting Mayor Golagani Hari Venkata Kumari to address ongoing GVMC labour unrest. Concerns mount over the impact on cleanliness and public health, with authorities actively seeking a resolution.

In response, Mayor Kumari asked the public to utilise the nearest dustbins to dispose of household waste and be aware of the inconvenience. In addition to highlighting the negative consequences of inappropriate waste management, such as dirty streets and roads and an increased risk of mosquito breeding and related health risks, she emphasised the significance of responsible waste disposal.
