The team visited a solid waste management plant and a landfill site to learn more about their garbage segregation technique, waste disposal method and door-to-door waste collection.
As per their observation during the tour, the solid waste plant has been set up by Nepra Company at a cost of Rs 30 crore. It not only makes compost out of waste but also produces piped natural gas (PNG). The PNG is used in city buses plying in the city.
According to the IMC officials, earlier there used to be a mountain of garbage. It has now been turned into compost and PNG by effectively managing the waste. The IMC generates a revenue of around one-and-a-half crore rupees from the company annually.
It needs to be mentioned here that Indore ranked no.1 in cleanliness ranking for three consecutive years. Gurugram ranked 83 at the swatchhta survey.
