4.What greets you as you approach the Ghazipur landfill?
Answers
Explanation:
Operational since 1984, the landfill site is spread over an area of 29 acres. According to the estimates, there is over 12 million tonnes of waste at the site and it stands 50-metre tall. The site had overshot the limit of 15-metre for a landfill site in 2002, but no steps have been taken to make the shift. There was an absence of an alternative site keeping the landfill functional.
The landfill site, back in 2016, used to get 3,000-3,5000 metric tonnes of waste every day with more than 600-650 trucks trailing on the huge garbage mounds every day. The landfill apart from garbage also takes up sewage water and is used to dump construction rubble from east Delhi.
The site has been impacting the lives of many residents of Gharoli, Khoda, Gharoli Extension, Kalyanpuri, Kaushambi, Ghazipur and Kondli.
