The event was attended by local councilor Shri Roshan Lal Sagar, Ms. Poonam Nirmal, Chaudhary Jaswant, and senior officials from the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD).

The Mayor explained that the FCTS, which will handle waste from three nearby wards, represents a significant advancement in Delhi’s waste management system.
