Visakhapatnam: South MLA Vasupalli Ganesh Kumar on Thursday inaugurated a modernised 'Closed Compaction System’ at Old-Town. With the help of Swachha Andhra Corporation, this Rs 9.58 crore worth Garbage Transfer Station is bought to bring an end to the open garbage shifting system. On the occasion, the MLA said that it would be a new phase in lifting garbage and the public no longer has to worry about the pungent smell, mosquitoes and spread of diseases.
