Urban development minister Ashish Sood, who presented a detailed review of Delhi's landfill remediation efforts during the national review meeting of Swachh Bharat Mission, claimed that the biomining project in Delhi has achieved record pace over the last one year with 7.4 million tonnes of legacy waste being cleared in April 2025- February 2026.

Comparatively, according to the data submitted by the urban development ministry to the Centre, around 2.99 million tonnes of waste was removed in 2024-25, 5.4 million tonnes in 2023-24 and just 2.19 million tonnes in 2022-23.

Similarly, the daily average biomining has now reached 20,000 tonnes per day (TPD) in comparison to 8,000 TPD, 15,000 TPD, and 6,000 TPD in the preceding three years, respectively. The national level review was held at Vigyan Bhavan under the chairmanship of Union minister for housing and urban affairs Manohar Lal Khattar.
