Mysore was on second place while Bangalore and Mangalore have bagged the 8th and 12th place. The ministry’s policy initiative was part of an objective to create awareness on hygienic conditions in urban areas. In Karnataka, Mandya (15th) and Bidar (22nd ) have found place among the 25 cleanest cities.
Udupi, Chikmaglur, Hospet,Bijapur, Belgaum, Gangavathi, Hassan, Robertsonpet, Gulbarga, Kolar, Bellary, Badravathi, Tumkur, Hubli-Dhawad, Raichur and Gadag-Betigeri, received less than 45 on a scale of hundred.
The rating was carried out by three private agencies ––AC Nielsen-ORG Marg, Development and Research Services (DRS) and CEPT University.
bidar rocks ……we proud to say that Bidar is now 22nd cleanest city in India
wow…now I know I can post a comment here. I used to post my comments on the blog side and I was always wondering why my comment appeared after 2 to 3 days.
Anyways, guys I lived in belgaum since 1965 to 91. It used to be nice n clean and cool place. Now a days I dont live there but still its my birth place and still have my folks there and still vist them. Honestly it has become a dirty place, garbage piled up and the corporation doesnt not care worse yet the city corprates are a bunch yahoos. They have thier own selfish hidden Marathi or kannada or whatever langauge agenda. Classic example was the drama they created when a kannada mayor was elected. How many times in the history of the corporation a non Marathi mayor was elected without drama.
My point is all the people are responsible for the city to be kept clean. If all the residents do not do thier part, then belgaum will be a big dump yard.
Please feel free to send feed back.
