Delhi Civic Body Plans Additional Resources to Enhance Waste Clearance and Sanitation

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has instructed each zone to prepare a 'Ward Sanitation Management Plan' to assess existing manpower and machinery and identify resource gaps for improving waste clearance and sanitation. Zones may hire additional resources for six months, with a reassessment planned thereafter. The plan includes coordinating with existing concessionaires and clearly defining agency roles to avoid overlap and ensure accountability. Waste collection frequency will depend on garbage volume, with transport to designated dump sites or waste-to-energy facilities.
