Efforts initiated to make Dalhousie cleanest :
1. The Nestle India, in collaboration with Recity Network and Dalhousie Municipal Council, launched the ‘Hilldaari’ initiative in the presence of officials and residents of the town.
2. The ‘Hilldaari’ movement aims to transform solid waste management practices and make Dalhousie one of the cleanest hill stations of India.
3. Nestlé India, said “As a company, they share the ambition that no plastic waste should end up in the landfills. We are delighted in expanding the ‘Hilldaari’ initiative in Dalhousie and are extremely grateful to the local authorities for their support”. “With the support of the Hotel Association in Dalhousie, the project team had conducted a pilot awareness campaign across 96 hotels and partnered with various stakeholders to undertake multiple clean-up and plantation drives.
4. At the event, 12 household waste management professionals were felicitated for their exemplary service to the city. A campaign anthem, ‘Do Ekam Do’, inspiring locals and tourists to be ‘Responsible towards hills’ was also performed by Manzil Mystics, a folk fusion band from Delhi.
5. In the pilot stage, It had ensured that the vehicles plying to collect waste from the city had two separate compartments to collect dry and wet waste. In Dalhousie, the terrain makes it difficult to collect waste from certain areas. To tackle this, ‘caged storage bins’ have been installed as a pilot project in Ward 4 of the town.
6. The idea was to bring multiple stakeholders on to a common platform. the aim was to effectively implement an integrated solid waste management plan.
Solid Waste management Plants in State :
Himachal Pradesh’s Solid Waste Crisis To Come To An End Soon, As State Government Sanctions Six New Waste Management Plants.Himachal Pradesh aims to solve its long-pending waste problem by setting up six solid waste management plants
The scenic beauty of Himachal Pradesh notwithstanding, the state has been grappling with garbage disposal problems for many years. Nearly 304 metric tonnes of solid waste is generated in the state daily, of which 51 metric tonnes is generated in the state capital of Shimla alone. Himachal Pradesh is frequented by tourists from all over the world, resulting in even more waste generation in the state, apart from what is generated usually from the residents. The state’s only solid waste management plant in Shimla is unable to cope with the state’s entire waste output. So the state’s decision last month, to set up six waste management plants across the state is a significant one.
Baddi, Mandi, Kangra, Chamba, Sirmaur and Hamirpur have been chosen as the sites where the plants will be set up. The plants are estimated to cost Rs. 50 crore each and will be set up under the private public partnership (PPP) model, with costs being split between the state government and private organisations. Tenders will be floated by April 2018 for private organisations to start bidding.
