CD Waste Still on Haryana Roads Despite Exigency Declaration

Despite the declaration of an emergency by Haryana authorities a month ago, construction and demolition (CD) waste still litters the roads, causing significant inconvenience and environmental concerns. The prolonged presence of debris has highlighted challenges in waste management and enforcement of regulations in the state.

Haryana had declared an urgency to address the mounting issue of CD waste, aiming to expedite its removal and mitigate its adverse impact on public health and the environment. However, reports indicate that the situation remains largely unchanged, with piles of debris obstructing traffic and posing hazards to pedestrians.

Authorities attribute the delay in clearing CD waste to logistical challenges and inadequate infrastructure for waste disposal. The accumulation of debris not only mars the aesthetic appeal of roads but also raises questions about the efficacy of waste management policies and their enforcement.

Residents and environmentalists have expressed dismay over the prolonged presence of CD waste, urging authorities to take swift action to resolve the issue. They emphasise the need for better coordination between civic agencies and stricter enforcement of waste disposal guidelines to prevent such situations in the future.

The persistence of CD waste on Haryana's roads underscores the pressing need for systemic improvements in waste management practices and regulatory enforcement. Addressing these challenges effectively is crucial to maintaining cleanliness, safety, and environmental sustainability across the state's infrastructure networks.
