In a decisive move to overhaul Delhi's waste management system, the government has announced plans for two state-of-the-art biomedical waste treatment facilities.

These new plants, aiming to replace the outdated Nilothi unit, will bolster infrastructure in Regions 1 and 2, addressing environmental and health concerns due to waste accumulation.

The initiative, spearheaded by Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa, involves a stringent timeline for tendering, with the process set to be completed within three months under a Build–Own–Operate model.
