In Chandigarh, government staff starts cleaning streets in the morning using brooms. While one does appreciate their work, this is not the right way to go about things. The dust the broom throws up does not settle down easily during the day and the air quality is hit. Particulat­e matter also travels deep into the respirator­y tract, cause short-term health effects. It is submitted that vacuum trucks be used to clean our streets and at night. Harjinder Singh Sandhawali­a, Chandigarh
