Almitra H Patel, member, Supreme Court Committee on Solid Waste
Management, India, on Friday said that officials working at local
bodies should have a minimum tenure of two years for effective execution of
garbage management plans. She was here to oversee the work under 'swachhta
abhiyan', started by the Karnal municipal corporation in three pockets of ward
no 2 of the city. She said that removal of commissioners and other senior
officials from the civic department was one of the major hindrances for making
the waste management plans a success. The 79-year-old environmentalist added
that she had written to the Haryana government on May 3, asking them to explain
the state's tenure policies for the officials of the local bodies.
