Thane: Goons Beat Up Security Guards At Garbage Dump In Umbarde In Kalyan

Kalyan, 1st March 2023: Four security guards on duty at Umbarde waste ground of Kalyan Dombivli Municipality in Umbarde village limits of Kalyan West were brutally beaten up by nine thugs on Tuesday night. The goons spread out from the vehicles, warning that if they are seen again in this wasteland, they will beat them up again. The security guards were stunned by this sudden incident. They could not resist the goons.

Kalyan Dombivli Municipal Waste Land is located in Umbarde village limits. After closing the waste dump at Aadhaarwadi, the municipality started the waste dump project at Umbarde at full capacity. Developers, farmers, and land mafia of this area are upset as this project comes within Umbarde village limits. For the last 15 years, the local people have been trying to find out how to stop the municipality from dumping garbage here.

Proper management of waste should be possible at Umbarde landfill sites. The municipality has deployed security guards at the landfill during the night to prevent miscreants from vandalizing the project there. The mischief that used to go on in the area during the night hours has stopped due to the deployment of security guards.

On Tuesday night, the security guards of the municipality, Ashok Nikam, Sachin Patil, Rutik, and Abhishek, were sitting in the security hall at the garbage dump. Two persons came there on a two-wheeler at 12:30 the night. They were followed by seven others in other vehicles. They abused the security guards present and started brutally beating them. They fled from there, threatening to kill them if they were seen in this place again. Security Supervisor Dinesh Sharma lodged a complaint at Khadakpada Police Station. Police have registered a case and started an investigation.
