This got me reminiscing about my school days when I'd wake as early as 5 a.m. to go dump refuse. Honestly, everyone is involved in this madness: the landlords, the government and the students living in those hostels. The government is supposed to find a way to develop waste management system that reaches every nook and corner of the locality. As for landlords, they should be the ones pushing for such. Even at that, there is a little they can do except pay private waste management companies to do the job government ones won't do. Sincerely, that's quite expensive.
The students share the most blame. They are in the higher institution, they are supposed to be educated enough to do the right things. Even if appropriate waste management system was put in place a lot of them will still litter everywhere with wastes.
