Bids Called for Privatising Waste Handling in Two More City Zones

With this, solid waste management in 14 zones in the city will be privatised while part of Ambattur zone (12 divisions) alone would remain with GCC.

Last month GCC handed over solid waste collection and transportation operations in Royapuram and Thiru-Vi-Ka Nagar zones to Delhi MSW Solutions Limited. The sanitary workers from at least 10 zones, led by CITU, joined the protest which was held at multiple locations.
