Manesar Goes High-Tech: RFID Tags Track Every Household's Waste
20 Dec
Summary
- RFID tags and QR codes now monitor daily waste collection from all Manesar households.
- Approximately 100,000 properties are tagged, with the rest to be covered soon.
- A toll-free number, 1800-208-5654, is available for residents to report waste collection issues.
Manesar has implemented a new door-to-door waste collection system, now enhanced with RFID tags and QR codes for precise daily monitoring. This technology digitally maps approximately 100,000 properties, with remaining units slated for tagging soon, creating a comprehensive database for real-time oversight of service delivery.
The system focuses purely on monitoring service levels, not payments, and generates data shared across multiple civic body levels for transparency. Waste collection vehicles are equipped with separate compartments for wet and dry waste to adhere to management rules and reduce landfill burden.
Citizens can utilize a new toll-free number, 1800-208-5654, to raise complaints, ensuring all issues are tracked for prompt resolution. This move is expected to foster more efficient waste management practices, with residents already noting improvements in communication and service, such as jingles promoting waste segregation.
