The GCC has been facing criticism for its handling of waste management in the city.
The Crisis in Waste Management
The crisis in waste management in Chennai has been ongoing for several years. The city's waste management system has been plagued by inefficiencies, corruption, and a lack of effective policies. The GCC has been criticized for its inability to manage waste effectively, leading to the accumulation of waste in public spaces.
The bench also pointed out that the waste management system is not designed to handle the volume of waste generated by the city's growing population.
The Waste Management Crisis in [City Name]
The city's waste management system is facing a severe crisis, with the current infrastructure unable to cope with the increasing volume of waste generated by the city's growing population. The situation is further exacerbated by the fact that many of the city's waste management centres are not equipped to process large quantities of waste.
The Current State of Waste Management Centres
The city's waste management centres are currently only able to process a small fraction of the total waste generated by the city. According to the bench, only 49 of the remaining centres can process up to 150 tonnes of waste, leaving hundreds of tonnes to be sent to landfills.
