Punjab High Court Seeks Update on Delayed Samgauli Waste Management Plant
The Punjab and Haryana High Court has issued notices to government officials for a December 3 hearing on a PIL seeking to operationalize the Samgauli Waste Management Plant in Mohali, intended to serve Greater Mohali's waste disposal needs. Despite a 2015 National Green Tribunal order mandating completion by 2017, the project remains stalled due to cancelled tenders, ended partnerships, and land disputes. The petition highlights increasing waste challenges and urges coordinated government action to address the decade-long delay.
