NGT Orders Hamirpur to Act on Legacy Waste Disposal

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) is making sure Hamirpur city in India cleans up its old trash problem.

The city's officials were supposed to get rid of the old trash by June, but they didn't.

Now, there's a lot of old trash still sitting around.

The NGT told the city to make a plan to clean it up and deal with the new trash that comes in every day.

Right now, they make more trash each day than they can handle.

The city has to tell the NGT how they will fix this and promise to get rid of the trash within six months.

The NGT will check on their progress in October.
