The delay is mainly due to the lack of a dedicated waste management system.
Establishing a Waste-to-Energy Unit
The MCC Budget for 2025-26 has proposed the establishment of a unit to convert waste into energy. This unit will be equipped with the necessary technology and infrastructure to handle the city’s waste efficiently.
The MCC will also provide training and capacity building programs for the waste management sector.
Procurement of Windrow Turners
The MCC has also announced plans to procure windrow turners for waste composting. These machines will be used to turn and aerate waste piles, allowing for faster decomposition and reducing odors and pests.
