It is worth noting that Terrace Gardening and Rain Water Harvesting increased drastically with frequent training and seminars.

SWM Rules 2026 – Townhall Bangalore Apartments’ Federation(BAF) attended the BSWML meeting and presented how apartment communities in Bengaluru are managing waste and moving towards a circular economy in SWM practices. Key concerns were raised — including the unfair classification of vertically stacked homes as Bulk Waste Generators. The BSWML CEO acknowledged these issues and agreed to initiate corporation -level discussions with apartment communities starting next Tuesday, 21 April 2026. We welcome this constructive, collaborative approach. #SWM #CircularEconomy #easeofliving @PIB_India @PIBBengaluru @moefcc @CPCB_OFFICIAL @KareeGowda_IAS @GBA_office @comm_blr_south @BNCCofficial @BECCUPDATES @BWCCofficial @BCCCofficial @Chairman_KSPCB @karnatakakspcb @BSWML_GBA
