South Delhi Mayor Shyam Sharma met Lt Governor Anil Baijal today and sought his help in procuring land for waste-to-energy plant under the civic body area and implementation of recommendations of Delhi Finance Commission (DFC).
Sharma requested the LG for release of pending funds under 3rd DFC and implementation of 4th DFC, a statement by the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) said.
He also sought early issue of notification of delimitation of municipal wards.
Sharma requested the LG to help in the allotment of land for a waste-to-energy plant in the SDMC area.
He suggested the land of the NTPC plant at Badarpur could be considered for this purpose as the coal-based plant may be closed keeping in view the rising pollution level.
The Mayor also proposed a land plot measuring over 14 acre belonging to the Cement Corporation of India may be considered for allotment to the SDMC for extension of its only landfill site at Okhla whose life span has expired, the statement said.
