Bengaluru dumped waste at 200 homes to punish habitual litterers, sparking debate over fairness and waste system flaws.
On October 30, 2025, Bengaluru authorities dumped waste at the doorsteps of about 200 households in a crackdown on habitual littering, targeting those who illegally dump trash.
The move, led by the Greater Bengaluru Authority and Bengaluru Solid Waste Management Limited, aims to deter violations after failed awareness efforts, reducing garbage "black spots" from 869 to 150.
Offenders face fines of Rs 2,000 to Rs 10,000.
While some support the tough approach, others criticize it as unfair, citing inconsistent waste collection, lack of segregation, and challenges for shift workers.
The initiative has sparked debate over enforcement ethics and systemic flaws in urban waste management.
