Rahul Dravid

Throughout his career, the former cricket captain of India was known as “The Wall” because of his ability to weather the bowlers’ onslaught by launching a marathon that would finally wear his opponents down.

Similarly, he knows that resolving Bangalore’s garbage crisis is a marathon, not a sprint. It needs a kit fitted with two bins and one bag. He says: “With this, I find managing waste is quite easy…”

About ‘2b1b’: It means “two bins, one bag”. Green bin is for compostable kitchen/wet waste, red bin is for bio-medical/sanitary waste and the bag is for recyclables like paper, plastic, metal and glass which have to be handed over to pourakarmikas.

Rahul adds: “Groups like SWMRT and KMB have been helping Bengalureans in various localities segregate waste at source and manage it responsibly.”
