With the national capital reeling under garbage menace, the National Green Tribunal on Friday sought account details of the East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC), Delhi government and Delhi Development Authority (DDA).

The NGT has also formed a committee to tackle the menace of solid waste in Delhi.
The committee, including representatives of the NPCB, DPCC, DDA, MCD, DG Health and four independent members, will visit the site and give report about the capacity and sewage management plant. .
It will also look after the solid waste management of five star hotels, hospital, big colonies and colleges, which have more than 500 students.
The national capital has been reeling under garbage menace as the sanitation workers have called for an indefinite strike on January 5, demanding payment of pending salaries of three months.
