Congress MLA Vikas Thakre has issued a stern warning to the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC), threatening to dump garbage at the civic body’s office on Diwali if longstanding cleanliness issues are not addressed. The statement, made on October 18, 2025, underscores growing frustration among residents and local representatives over poor waste management, irregular garbage collection, and unclean streets, particularly ahead of the festive season. Thakre emphasized that despite repeated complaints and appeals, the NMC has failed to ensure basic sanitation, affecting public health and the city’s image. He stated that the protest would serve as a symbolic reminder to municipal authorities of their responsibility to maintain cleanliness and respond promptly to citizen concerns. Civic officials have yet to issue a response but indicated that waste management teams are being mobilized for Diwali preparations. #VikasThakre #NagpurMunicipalCorporation #NMC #GarbageProtest
