As roads were opened after successful negotiations between the government and religious organizations, the Rawalpindi Waste Management Company on Monday removed all the waste from the city areas during the last 24 hours to keep the city neat and clean.
According to the RWMC spokesman, additional workers were deployed; besides utilizing the heavy machinery, the workers, with tireless efforts, lifted hundreds of tons of garbage which had created trouble for the residents during the last ten days.
He said that due to the closure of roads, the cleaning operation was halted but as soon as the roads were opened, the sanitary workers cleaned all the areas on an emergency basis besides clearing the metro bus station areas.
