32% of Capital's daily waste at mercy of elements: ASCI
February 06, 2024
|Hindustan Times
An audit of Delhi's garbage management, and the implementation of the Capital's municipal solid waste (MSW) management rules, revealed that nearly 32% of the waste that the city generates is leaking into the environment and needs immediate attention.
NEW DELHI: The audit conducted by the Administrative Staff College of India (ASCI), Hyderabad, also flagged the shortcomings in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi's primary process of door-to-door collection of waste.
Delhi produces an estimated 11,000 tonne of waste per day. In April 2023, the Solid Waste Management Committee headed by the lieutenant governor had directed MCD to carry out a third-party audit of Delhi's solid waste management, collection, transportation, recycling, processing and disposal system.
Subsequently, a team from ASCI studied Delhi's waste collection between September and December. Municipal commissioner Gyanesh Bharti, while presenting MCD's annual budget proposals for 2024-25 on December 9, shared that ASCI will assess the Capital's garbage management, and identify the areas of improvement.
