Waste Processing Projects in Gurugram and Chandigarh Face Delays Amid Tender and Approval Issues
Municipal authorities in Gurugram and Chandigarh face challenges in advancing waste processing projects. Gurugram's Municipal Corporation has repeatedly floated tenders for fresh waste processing, but bids have exceeded budgeted rates, delaying contract finalization amid National Green Tribunal directives to manage landfill waste. Meanwhile, Chandigarh's plan to upgrade its Sector 25 dry and mixed waste processing plant faces delays after the Municipal Corporation General House canceled the proposal to select a processing agency, with concerns that upcoming elections may further postpone progress. Both cities seek solutions to manage growing municipal solid waste effectively.
