‘Segregated trash can generate income, Noida should do it’

Noida: The RWA federation in Noida has raised objections to the proposal of the Authority to make waste segregation the accountability of the residents associations and levy a charge for rubbish collection.
Maintaining that waste collection and disposal is the obligation of the Noida Authority, the Federation of Noida Residents Welfare Associations (FONRWA) said on Friday that the authority would have the ability to generate huge income through sale of waste materials, such as card board, aluminium, bottles, tins, and several different re-usable items, and compost comprised of wet rubbish.

According to FONRWA, residents of Noida were shocked on the issuance of an order through the Noida Authority, specifying the user fees for the more than a few types of living gadgets/waste generators.

“Whereas Noida Authority has now not but taken requisite steps on its section in keeping with the provisions of the Solid Waste Management (SWM) Rules, 2016, such as system of composite regulations, association for authorised waste pickers and many others, they've issued in a haste the order assigning households/RWAs to discharge certain duties on their section,” said NP Singh, president, FONRWA.

“The Authority is but to finalise an agency as authorised collector of rubbish from door to door, however has issued an order that households might be obliged to segregate rubbish w.e.f. July 1, 2018. In the absence of deployment of authorised pickers before the said date, whom shall the households handover the segregated waste,” he requested.


According to the RWA federation, despite the fact that the lowest slab of Rs 25 is charged in step with family, the aggregated collection of user fees shall come to Rs 62.five lakh per thirty days (given the population of Noida is an estimated 10 lakh).


“The Authority is obliged to provide such municipal services. Huge amount of income is predicted from the sale of recyclable waste amassed from house. So why the burden of waste collection charge is being levied on residents,” requested AN Dhawan, secretary general of FONRWA.


“In public pastime, we’ve advised CEO Alok Tandon that only section value from more than a few waste generators (aside from residents/families) may be levied for waste collection as residents have already paid for the municipal services in the leasehold costs and different costs in their houses,” he added.
