Green panel seeks report on illegal waste mounds
Hindustan Times Noida
|October 23, 2025
THE NGT TOOK COGNISANCE OF THE ISSUE IN 2024, BASED ON AN HT REPORT ON THE SINGHOLA AND BAWANA WASTE MOUNTAINS
Taking note of illegal waste mountains at Singhola and Bawana on the outskirts of Delhi, the National Green Tribunal (NGT) gave the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) and the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) four weeks to submit action taken to deal with the issue.
The NGT took cognisance of the issue in November 2024, based on a report published in the HT titled "New waste mountains creep up on capital", which detailed how two new waste mounds had cropped up in the capital. One of them is located near the Narela-Bawana waste-to-energy (WtE) plant, and the other—a large accumulation of silt and mixed waste—has cropped up on a seven-acre plot in Singhola.
