Chandigarh Bans Waste Burning to Improve City's Waste Management

The Chandigarh district magistrate has made it illegal to burn any kind of waste in the city.

This includes things like trash from homes, factories, and farms.

Everyone must use the city's waste collection system instead.

Officials will be checking to make sure people follow the rules.

If someone breaks the rule, they could face punishment under the law.

This new rule doesn't apply to waste burning that is officially allowed for waste treatment or disposal.
