In a latest and rather dramatic move to tackle the city’s chronic garbage problem, the Bangalore Solid Waste Management Limited (BSWML) has begun returning illegally dumped waste to the homes of habitual litterbugs. The crackdown follows years of failed fines and awareness drives. BSWML CEO Kari Gowda said the step was taken after residents continued to discard trash on roads despite regular door-to-door collection.

A video of the unusual cleanup campaign has since gone viral. BlackBuck Moving Out of Bengaluru?
