Chandigarh MP Manish Tewari questions shifting deadlines to clean Dadumajra dump: ‘most unfortunate’ | Chandigarh News

Chandigarh MP Manish Tewari Thursday criticised the shifting of deadlines yet again for clearing the massive garbage dump at Dadumajra, alleging that the government has been evasive about the expenditure incurred on the project. Tewari said he had asked in Parliament about the amount of money spent since April 2019 on clearing and managing the site. “The government ducked the question because the expenditure runs into a huge sum, running into high numbers in crores,” he said. The Congress leader pointed out that the Chandigarh Administration and the Municipal Corporation had assured the National Green Tribunal (NGT) that the site would be cleared by December 25, 2024. This commitment was made in the Administrator’s Advisory Committee meeting in August 2024, he added. Story continues below this ad However, Tewari said, when the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Housing and Urban Affairs visited Chandigarh, the Municipal Corporation said the dump, including both legacy and concurrent waste, would be cleared by June 2025. He said in its latest response in Parliament, the government said it has extended the …
