Dumping garbage from Colombo at Karadiyana halted

The Kesbewa Magistrate’s Court has ordered to suspend the disposal of garbage collected by the Colombo Municipal Council at Karadiyana Waste Management Facility in Piliyandala with effect from tomorrow (29). 

The court had previously declared that 350 metric tonnes of garbage be allowed to be disposed at the site per day from April 17 to 28. 

However, as municipal authorities had not requested the court to extend this time period, the court declared that disposing waste at the facility will be allowed only for today and the process will be halted from tomorrow (29).
