- Garbage-filled streets in Tirupati have highlighted official apathy and civic indifference, with the Tirupati Municipal Corporation (TMC) repeatedly clearing silt from a major drain near Karumariyamma Temple on Tilak Road that lacks a connection to the city's underground drainage system. City administrators blamed residents for dumping garbage into the open drains, while residents and a quoted source criticized the city planners and engineers for an official oversight and alleged helplessness.
