Poor waste management diminishes appeal of picnic spots in Ranchi

Ranchi's picnic spots are losing their appeal due to poor waste management and inadequate facilities. Visitors report litter and a lack of disposal bins, which detracts from the enjoyment of places like Tagore Hill and Kanke Dam. Despite claims from the Ranchi Municipal Corporation of regular cleanliness drives, visitors describe the areas as dirty and lacking basic amenities. The absence of proper restroom facilities has particularly affected vulnerable visitors. Coordination issues between the municipal corporation and the tourism department have left essential services, such as drinking water and toilets, unaddressed. This oversight impacts both the natural beauty of the locations and the overall visitor experience.
