The first and only such facility in the city has helped improve waste management

By the side of the busy NAL Wind Tunnel Road, a man hands over a jute bag containing waste from his house to a woman sitting at the ‘Kasa Kiosk’. Nethravathi, the woman at the kiosk who is wearing a mask and rubber gloves, swiftly segregates the waste into wet, dry, and rejects, and hands over the bag back.

The Kasa Kiosk, a manned stall, which is the first of its kind and the only one in the city, stands at a spot that was once a massive black spot.
