Mohali Residents Petition NGT Over Delay in Samgoli Waste Management Plant
The proposed Regional Integrated Solid Waste Management Facility at Samgoli, planned over a decade ago with land acquired in 2017 and partially handed to Mohali Municipal Corporation in 2020, remains non-operational. The Confederation of Greater Mohali Residents Welfare Associations has approached the National Green Tribunal citing ongoing environmental and public health concerns due to open dumping and waste burning. They seek detailed status reports and a time-bound action plan from government bodies to ensure the plant's completion and adherence to Solid Waste Management Rules, 2026.
