BBMP installs mirrors on walls to curb public urination in Bengaluru

In a bid to fight public urination in Bengaluru, Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike has come up with a unique idea. Large mirrors have been installed at various spots where public urination is usually reported. The mirrors also consist of QR code which helps to locate public toilet nearby. The step by BBMP comes under their Swachh Survekshan 2020 campaign. At present, the mirror boards have been installed near KR Market, Indira Nagar, Jyoti Nivas College in Koramangala and Church Street. Around two lakh rupees have been spent by BBMP under the initiative to spread awareness. BH Anil Kumar, Commissioner BBMP said, “Despite repeatedly cleaning those black spots, people kept using those places for urinating. So we came up with this idea. We have also given a QR Code which will help people locate the nearest public toilet.”
