Sadly this is what many part of our National Capital look like...Awards are due to our agencies....for the "worst" category. 🤐🤐

# MCD's latest yearly budget shows 4800 crores INR under the head sanitation.
# Surat's Waste Management Allocation is 200 crores.
# If you compare Surat's 2020 population with the waste management budget, each resident of surat has 1.20 inr a day spent on him for waste management.
# When you compare Delhi's 2020 population with the budget (yes the budget figure is recent, but it cant be drastically different 6 years ago), a Delhi resident has more than 5 times the amount spent on him for waste management as a surat resident : 6.3 inr a day.
# Yet, Surat has been recognized as a model city for waste management in India, being ranked first nationally, and classified as a 5-Star Garbage Free City in Swachh Sarvekshan 2023 under the Swachh Bharat Mission.
# where delhi, is, we all know. delhi MCD has long been known for enormous corruption.
# Delhi MCD has been ruled by BJP continuously since 1997 save a 5 year window by congress in 2002 and a 2 year window by AAP in 2023.
