Summary:
BBMP sources said the RDF would be moved in the next few weeks out of the six compost-based waste processing plants. BBMP Commissioner N.
Manjunath Prasad said they intend to bury RDF backlog in a quarry and excavate it when the waste-to-energy plants were ready in the city. However, the move to bury the RDF backlog in another quarry has been criticised from many quarters. He said the expert committee had not permitted the civic body to dump the RDF in a quarry yet. However, the city is yet to boast of any waste-to-energy plants where the RDF can be used..
