The Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) has issued a directive to builders in Sectors 81 to 95, requiring them to operate sewage treatment plants (STPs) in accordance with established regulations. This move aims to ensure proper waste management and environmental compliance in these areas.

The DTCP's directive comes in response to concerns about inadequate sewage treatment and the need for adherence to environmental standards. Builders are now required to demonstrate that their STPs meet operational guidelines and discharge standards to prevent pollution and safeguard public health.

This decision highlights the DTCP's commitment to enforcing environmental regulations and maintaining high standards of urban infrastructure. Builders must comply with these regulations to avoid penalties and contribute to the city's sustainable development.

The enforcement of STP regulations is expected to improve waste management practices in these sectors, supporting the overall goal of enhancing the quality of life for residents and promoting a healthier environment.
