DMC to introduce waste bins with DMC logo
DIMAPUR — In light of the upcoming Christmas season and with the intent to enhance the aesthetic appeal of our municipal area, all shop owners operating under the Dimapur Municipal Council (DMC) jurisdiction have been directed to whitewash and decorate their shops.
In a notification, the DMC stated that this effort aims to maintain a uniform and welcoming appearance throughout Dimapur town.
In addition, the Dimapur Municipal Council will be selling Christmas stars this season. It has been mandated that all shops purchase their Christmas stars directly from the designated municipal officials to maintain uniformity. “The stars will be available at a minimal price,” it stated.
It stated that failure to comply with these instructions may result in penalties in accordance with the municipal council's guidelines.
Waste bins with DMC logo
Meanwhile, the DMC, in a separate notification, stated that several instructions and warnings have been issued to all shop owners to keep waste bins from the office.
However, it said, it has been observed that illegal littering and dumping of garbage/waste around shops in various locations in the town and colony areas continue, with shopkeepers failing to use dustbins.
Therefore, it stated, to streamline the management of waste and garbage, the DMC is introducing waste bins with the DMC logo.
The DMC Sanitation Committee has been authorised to inspect and issue dustbins to all shopkeepers under DMC jurisdiction who are not using or maintaining dustbins, with immediate effect.
