Tipping fee hiked but firm fails to lift garbage in Ludhiana

Ludhiana | Monday | 12th July, 2021

Summary:

Though the Municipal Corporation's F&CC has approved increasing the tipping fee given to a third-party firm for lifting of garbage from secondary waste collection points the firm has failed to lift the garbage timely. Former councillor Inder Aggarwal has questioned as to why the tipping fee was being increased by 25 per cent when the company had failed to lift the garbage timely. “Without floating any tenders the MC wants to continue services with the third-party firm. It indicates that the firm is being benefitted by the ruling party and MC officials in violation of the norms. If the MC fails to improve garbage lifting we will launch an agitation” he added..
