12 Delhi Hospitals Set To Shut Down For Failing In Adhering To Biomedical Waste Norms

Hospitals are considered to be places where there is complete cleanliness given the number of patients it caters on a daily basis. They need to have proper waste management mechanisms where all the biomedical waste is discarded in such a manner without affecting patients, general public and the environment. However, these rules are openly flouted at many hospitals. Keeping this in mind, the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) has now cracked the whip on these erring hospitals in the national capital.
