Were Delhites FOOLED into FALSE STATEHOOD ?????

Many questions beg to be asked ......

Should the LG be elected instead of CM ...... how else do the people hold the head of Government Accountable ?????

Was a BAD LAW DRAFTED on purpose ...... A SITTING DUCK waiting to be abused ?????

Why spend so much money in maintenance of Vidhan Sabha if it cannot work for people ?????

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT A COMMENT ON MR. JUNG ..... 

Dear Friends,

While the mainline media calls it a Political Turf War between BJP and AAP or even Modi and Kejriwal ........ we the citizens who should have a larger say in how Delhi ought to be governed are reduced to being mere spectators.

Yes LG is appointed by the Center, and the center is a duly elected entity. But then so is the Delhi Government ....... and no political party should be allowed to decide what is right for citizens ..... we are well aware of our circumstances and are willing to reap benefits or suffer for our choice and when the time comes we shall punish the non performer.

We also do not want the Courts deciding on the basis of a Bad Law, of which true intentions are slowly unfolding ....... make the BULLY SEEM VIRTUOUS. Had it happened in any other state, it would have been termed murder of democracy.

Harsh words ...... and I MAY EVEN BE WRONG IN MY UNDERSTANDING ........ but keeping quiet will be akin to meekly Surrendering our Thinking Abilities and Right to Decide to the Politicians.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT ...... GOVERNOR RAJ CANNOT BE GOOD, AS HE IS NOT DIRECTLY ACCOUNTABLE.

Warm Regards,

Rajiv Kakria

Study on Waste Management by TERI

Household responses to information, communication of actions of community, incentives on Solid waste management Actions: A case study of Delhi Households

Solid Waste Management is a priority area both for the Central Government under the Clean India program and Smart Cities Initiative, and also for the Delhi Government as a focus area approved by Delhi Dialogues Commission. The Municipal Solid Waste Handling Rules 2016, specify that the generator of the waste has to segregate waste before it is collected. The rules also specify that landfilling may be permitted only for non- usable, non- biodegradable, non-recyclable, non-combustible and non-reactive inert waste [Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules, 2016].

Delhi generates 8360 tons (approx.) of municipal solid waste (MSW) per day [DPCC website]. Keeping the current rules in mind, segregating waste at the source will not only improve the quality of work environment of the rag pickers [Sarkar, 2003] but also reduce emissions to air, soil and water and increase the quantities that can be recycled.

Methodology
The objective of the study is to understand the factors that would induce households to segregate waste generated at source. Localities will be randomly selected to receive thefollowing treatments--

·         Information on dry and wet waste: The intervention entails provision of dustbins and brochures listing what exactly comprises of dry and wet waste, which will also be displayed on the notice boards of the localities receiving the treatment.
·         Communication of action of peers: Provision of information on the percentage of households segregating their waste.
·         Incentives (Only for localities that are randomly assigned to this intervention): Provision of incentive to the households segregating waste at source (to a maximum of Rs. 50 for one month per household).
Within the participating localities, households will be randomly selected to be a part of the study. The study will involve a baseline survey to ascertain the current waste disposal practices and follow up surveys (3 follow up surveys and one survey a month after the end of the study).

The study will inform the policy makers of the barriers and drivers at the ground level to implementing the Municipal Solid Waste Handling Rules, 2016.

The participating RWAs will also be acknowledged for their support and cooperation and also be invited to a workshop to disseminate the findings of the study which would also involve representatives of the State and Central Government, and MCD officials, which will highlight the issues faced by the RWAs to the Government agencies.
