Concerned over tons of garbage lying at Jahangirpuri site, the NGT on Friday directed Delhi chief secretary to coordinate with the North Delhi Municipal Corporation to manage 2.94 lakh MT of waste.
A bench headed by NGT Chairperson Justice Adarsh Kumar Goel also directed that the construction waste and debris be disposed off in the process.
“Having regard to the continuing impact of the existing problem on account of accumulated waste of 2.94 lakh MT on the ambient air quality, the Chief Secretary of Delhi may coordinate with the North Delhi Municipal Corporation or any other authority for the remedial action. Further report may be filed by DPCC which may also mention adequacy of C&D waste processing in Delhi,” the bench said.
