The Delhi High Court directs the Delhi government to release by June 15 the salary dues of East MCD employees. Delhi's garbage cleaners have not been paid for the last two months.


Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Friday visited east Delhi MCD office and interacted with striking sanitation workers.


The strike by sanitation workers has turned east Delhi into a huge garbage dump over the past 10 days, posing a serious threat to people's health, but the squabbling men in authority can't smell the stink.


About 15,000 tonnes of waste has been dumped on roadsides and in residential areas and 12,000 sanitation workers are refusing to work without getting their salaries.
