# NGT orders MCD to reveal waste pile at Singhola dump 2026-08-09T08:49:37+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The National Green Tribunal has ordered the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to disclose the precise amount of waste accumulated at the Singhola dump site, noting that earlier submissions omitted this figure. In an August 5 order, a bench led by Chairperson Justice Prakash Shrivastava and expert member Afroz Ahmad observed that while MCD reported on the Narela-Bawana facility, stating no untreated waste remains, only Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF), it failed to specify the Singhola quantity. Of 34,313 metric tonnes of legacy RDF retrieved from the landfill, 9,654.50 MT had been disposed of by March 2026, with the rest under processing. The tribunal directed MCD to file a fresh progress report before the next hearing. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com Tags: Delhi, environment, MCD, NGT, Singhola dump, waste management Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/ngt-orders-mcd-to-reveal-waste-pile-at-singhola-dump/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
