The directive was announced during a workshop at Panchsheel Balak Inter College, Sector 91, attended by representatives of hotels, restaurants, hospitals, schools, colleges, RWAs, and other bulk waste producers. "If the bulk waste generators do not set up compost processing units, the authority will stop collecting their waste after the 15-day deadline," said Indu Prakash Singh, officer on special duty (OSD), Noida authority. "We've advised them several times in the past. It's time they cooperate so Noida can perform better in the upcoming Swachh Survekshan," he added.
