With streets littered like never before and sewer lines choked with garbage, Delhi seems to be grappling with hygiene crisis. The chances of bacterial, fungal and vector borne diseases due to exponential rise in accumulation of garbage have increased at an alarming rate.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The sewage system of the capital is one of the most strained system in the country. Continuation of strike indicates suspension of periodic cleaning of this system.\u00a0Lesser the frequency of sewage cleaning, more is the accumulation of toxic gases in the sewer chambers which makes cleaning a risky affair for workers.\u00a0According to the National Commission for Safai\u00a0Karamcharis\u00a0(NCSK), 44 people died in Delhi between 1993 and 2019 while cleaning septic tanks and sewers. People have also reported about the reverse flow of water into their homes due to choked outflows.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The aesthetic degeneration of civic space has infused disinterest in senior citizens and kids to step out for recreational purposes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The trader community is especially concerned about the dumping. Sushil Singh,\u00a0a Pooja materials seller from\u00a0Jahangirpuri\u00a0complains about the littering around the stalls. He says \u201cPeople feel irked by waste around the Pooja items shop.

Even if a few workers agreed to do the cleaning, they were stopped by Union members who\u00a0were not\u00a0in a mood to tolerate any sort of breach in strike conduct.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Devender did approached the local Councillor for the solution but Councillor expressed a sense of helplessness and blamed the State Government for the non-payment of dues.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4583\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4583\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4583 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/medialit.in\/thevoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210125213201-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medialit.in\/thevoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210125213201-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/medialit.in\/thevoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210125213201-1.jpg 336w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4583\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">India&#8217;s capital piled up with garbage<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A representative of the Councillor of Jahangirpuri told The Voices \u201cDelhi govt owes Rs13,000 crore to three Civic Bodies Management-salary and other developmental works.

They too don\u2019t receive salaries on regular basis.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tragedy of Trifurcation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>It was the Trifurcation of the erstwhile Municipal Corporation of Delhi in 2012, which propelled the financial crisis. North Delhi Municipal corporation had to bear the brunt of it. It\u00a0got more unauthorized and lower taxation category colonies under its belt, which do not contribute a lot to revenues through property taxes. As per the reports out of the combined revenue of corporations in 2019-20 ,\u00a0which stood at Rs 6725 crore,\u00a0SDMC alone had a share of 48%.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Trifurcation has also resulted in lowering of budget allocation. Due to reduced budget at disposal\u00a0MCD\u00a0has been forced to compromise with salary and development expenses. The budget for a block which stood at Rs 2\u00a0crore\u00a0during 2007 now stands at Rs 25 lakhs a year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Since\u00a0then,\u00a0a financial unification of the civic body resources has been proposed at several occasions.\u00a0Civic body representatives confirmed the same to The Voices.\u00a0\u201cWe proposed that if budget for all three municipalities\u00a0is\u00a0merged then cross body cooperation in moments of shortage would be possible. As SDMC is mostly of elite class people, they\u00a0get\u00a0revenue from house tax and other taxes, which other zones lack.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>But proposal of such\u00a0unification\u00a0has not been approved yet.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the state&#8217;s ruling Aam Admi Party (AAP), has alleged corruption and financial irregularities in MCD and cited same as the reason for financial crunch. In a press conference earlier in the year,\u00a0AAP MLA Saurabh Bhardwaj raised concerns about the Municipal corporations\u2019 not ensuring the collection of dues from Delhi Development Authority (DDA). He said \u201cDDA owes more than Rs 2,000 crore to North and South corporations. The party in power in MCD, is the one which controls DDA. Hence, BJP should answer why any step hasn&#8217;t been taken to recover the dues from DDA.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Delhi being a Union Territory also, involves Center as a stakeholder. The Centre\u2019s grants to municipal bodies come under specific grants for projects, while Delhi government is supposed to pay a certain amount to the MCDs.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Courtroom Intervention in the crisis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>But political blame game has not brought any sort of resolution to the crisis. Courts have stepped in. In an interesting development\u00a0on\u00a0March 5, 2021, a division judge bench of Delhi High Court\u00a0issued bailable warrants against the President and Secretary of MCD\u00a0Swachhta\u00a0Karamchari\u00a0Union as they failed to appear before the court in an application filed by the East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The Court noted &#8220;This is absolutely\u00a0wrong,\u00a0your salaries and pensions must be cleared. We are looking into\u00a0it,\u00a0we will assure that. But if you go on strike again and again and harass the public, is that right? This kind of anarchy, is it right? If required, we will attach their property. The work you&#8217;re doing for the city is very important.&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>In response to the warning from court, President of the Union verbally assured courts about suspending any future plan to continue strike.\u00a0 But that calls for an early creative action to resolve the payment crisis.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4578\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4578\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4578 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/medialit.in\/thevoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210125212722-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medialit.in\/thevoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210125212722-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/medialit.in\/thevoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210125212722-1.jpg 448w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4578\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Road covered with garbage, beside a temple in New Delhi.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In an interesting noting during a hearing on the case of unpaid dues, Delhi High Court confirmed\u00a0Right to receive Salary and Pension as a fundamental right under Article 21.
