The municipal corporation (MC) has issued a warning to officials of A2Z Group, the private company which has been tasked with handling solid waste management in the city, to improve their working.
In a meeting last week, the MC officials said that apart from its failure in processing over 1,100 metric tonnes of garbage generated in the city on a daily basis, the company had also failed to lift garbage from secondary dumping points in time.
Out of the total 27 vehicles deployed for the lifting of garbage, only 16 have been put to work. The company officials claimed that the remaining vehicles need repairs, reports The Hindustan Times.
The officials said that a certain period would be given to the company to improve its working failing which the MC might terminate their contract.
