In order to improve sanitation level in the city especially in the busy areas, Municipal Corporation of Dehradun (MCD) started operating two more Jatayu machines from Tuesday.
MCD already has one such suction machines working since the last week of January this year and two more started working from Tuesday.
Municipal commissioner Vinay Shankar Pandey said, “We have started operating two more machines in the city. The main aim is to keep the busy roads of the city clean.
We already bought one machine after a successful trial which showed us results and then we bought two more machines.
The two machines, however, were unable to work for a long time due to pending clearance from the transport department which is finally done now. One of these machines is assigned to Rajpur Road, Clock Tower and one is on our premises which is being operated in response to complaints.”
