It also asked the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) legislators to create awareness about garbage disposal among the people here.
“Garbage mounds near landfill sites are above 45 metres. These are almost like towers as like Qutub Minar. Height of Qutub Minar is 73 metres and these mounds are more than half the size.
