New Waste Disposal Rules for Four Bengaluru Areas: GPS Mandatory for Vehicles, Bills Cut if Vehicles Don't Operate

The Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) is implementing new waste disposal rules under a new tender. These rules will begin in four major wards—Gowindarajnagar, Mahalakshmi Layout, Vijayanagar, and Chamarajpet—by the end of November. Additionally, the new system will start in the Chickpet ward from December. The new system mandates that waste collection vehicles must have GPS, and payment will only be made for bills generated based on GPS data. Failure to operate the GPS or vehicle will result in a penalty and cancellation of the day's bill.
