Hyderabad: The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) is planning to curb irregularities in the issue of diesel coupons in its transport wing. The corporation had introduced the system of issuing diesel coupons online from October 1 this year for heavy vehicles which lift and transport garbage, said GHMC Commissioner B Janardhan Reddy.
Officials of the transport wing of the GHMC observed that the system has started yielding good results. With an average of 4,000 litres per day, the GHMC is saving nearly 1.2 lakh litres of diesel in a month which is worth around Rs 60 lakh.
For lifting of garbage, the GHMC has deployed around 500 vehicles in which dumper bins, JCBs, Bobcots, including 25, 10 and 6 tonnes of lorries and around 200 vehicles which are more than 15 years old are being utilised as part of the fleet of vehicles.
The GHMC is introducing auto tippers for lifting of garbage in the coming days in which 15-year-old vehicles will be disposed of through e-auction, after deploying the new Swachh auto tippers which will be force in the coming days in which about 25 to 30 per cent of the expenditure of the transport wing will automatically come down and a lot of budget will be saved in the transport wing.
Janardhan Reddy informed that the GHMC is also proposing to handover existing fleet of vehicles to the RTC for its maintenance and to have transparency. The plan was placed before Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao for which the CM has given the green signal and necessary instructions have already been given to the RTC to take up maintenance works in the near future. In this context, the GHMC along with the RTC officials, will have a coordination meeting among the two departments to discuss and sort out the issues duly coming up with suggestions to take up the maintenance works.
