The amount of waste generated at Kedarnath in the first three months of the ongoing yatra season has already crossed the quantity of waste produced at the ecologically fragile site in 2022, with most of it dumped untreated near the base camp, official records show.
NEW DELHI:
According to information provided by Nagar Panchayat Kedarnath in reply to an RTI application filed by environmentalist Amit Gupta, a total of 17.6 metric tonnes of garbage was generated at the Himalayan shrine between May and July 2025.
Of this, only 7.1 metric tonnes could be processed or recycled while the remaining 10.5 metric tonnes was dumped untreated.
The month-wise data shows that 8.4 metric tonnes of waste was generated in May, 5.6 metric tonnes in June and 3.6 metric tonnes in July.
