Minister Attends Meetings on Rs 1,200 Crore Waste Management Project in Chandigarh
What happened
Minister Harjot Singh Bains attended a meeting in Chandigarh concerning the proposed Rs 1,200-crore Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM) project. During the meeting, it was decided that the Municipal Corporation's plan would not include door-to-door garbage collection by a private contractor. This decision followed concerns raised by employees regarding the outsourcing of sanitation services.

Why it matters
The existing system for door-to-door garbage collection will continue, though mechanical sweeping of internal roads remains subject to further decisions. Only additional work may be assigned to a new agency for a limited period.
