City’s sanitation crisis deepened on Friday as heaps of garbage continued to accumulate across major roads, markets and residential areas due to the ongoing strike by sanitation workers. With a majority of the city’s 42 static compactor sites remaining shut, garbage collection has come to a near standstill, forcing residents to fear a possible outbreak of diseases if the situation continues.
