30 Oct
Summary
- Ten households received notices for failing to segregate waste properly.
- The New Delhi Municipal Council conducted an awareness drive on waste segregation.
- Four colonies are targeted for development into 'Anupam Colonies' by December 10.
The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) recently issued notices to ten households at the Central Government Employees' Residential Complex on BKS Marg for failing to segregate waste. This violation was identified during an awareness drive focused on four-way waste segregation in the area. The NDMC is encouraging residents to separate waste at the source into wet, dry, sanitary, and special-care categories.
Four specific colonies have been identified for focused intervention to be designated as 'Anupam Colonies' by December 10. These include the Central Government Employees' Residential Complex, West Kidwai Nagar, Sarojini Vihar, and Chanakya Rail Enclave. The initiative aims to decentralize the processing of segregated waste within these complexes, reduce transportation needs, and establish local recycling outlets.
