New Delhi, June 12 (ANI): Delhi LG Najeeb Jung on Friday met three mayors and commissioners of municipal corporations and has reportedly informed them that Rs 493 crore would be released to the civic bodies today itself to cover the dues. Massive amounts of garbage are piled up in various parts of the city after the sanitation workers in Delhi went on a strike because of a non-payment of salaries for the last three months. The LG appealed to the mayors to persuade the employees to end their strike in the interest of the citizens of Delhi. Meanwhile, the Delhi HC has directed the AAP government to release dues of east MCD employees by June 15. The Delhi HC said garbage issue in east Delhi has reached alarming proportions and directed Delhi Police and east MCD to hold a meeting for ensuring its removal.
