NDMC Allows One-Third of Group B and C Staff to Work from Home to Reduce Fuel Use

The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has permitted one-third of its Group B and C employees to work from home where administratively feasible, aiming to reduce fuel consumption and avoidable commuting. Employees working remotely must remain accessible and attend office when required. Certain essential staff, including sanitation, emergency services, and utility workers, are exempt and must continue physical attendance. The NDMC also encourages use of public transport, bicycles, or electric vehicles and prefers virtual meetings to minimize travel.
