Sangareddy: Following a letter from the Dundigal Airforce Academy airing concerns over the proposed dump yard at Pyaranagar, Sangareddy Collector Valluru Kranthi said she would send a detailed reply to the Academy officials to clear their apprehensions.
Speaking to ‘Telangana Today’ on Wednesday, the Collector said the GHMC would not dump the waste at Pyaranagar openly but would treat the waste in a scientific way since it was a waste treatment plant that was proposed, and not a regular dump yard as feared by the local residents.
The Collector, however, said she had asked GHMC officials to send a detailed report on the proposed waste treatment plant to her, which she would eventually forward to the Academy officials. As doubted by the Academy authorities, she said the project would not attract birds.
Meanwhile, GHMC officials on Wednesday stopped works at Pyaranagar on the proposed project following High Court orders. Even as some farmers claimed their lands were falling under the proposed site and petitioned revenue officials to carry out a survey of land, the GHMC officials had taken up the work before the survey was done. The farmers then approached the High Court seeking its intervention. Following the court orders on Tuesday, Gummadidala Tahsildar Ganga Bhavani said the survey of lands would be carried out for four days from February 13 to 19. The work would commence after demarcating the exact boundaries of land allotted to the dump yard.
Meanwhile, the farmers of Gummadidala continued the protests in Gummadidala, Pyaranagar and Nallavalli on Wednesday. They took up a rally with sheep and goats on the Gummadidala main road.
