Residents of Supertech Eco Village-1, a housing complex in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India, are facing significant challenges due to improper waste management in their basement. With nearly 6,500 families living in the complex, complaints have intensified regarding the accumulation of garbage and foul odors, particularly during the summer and monsoon seasons when stagnant water exacerbates the problem. Residents have reported that household waste is not processed properly and is often dumped in the basement, leading to health concerns from increased mosquito populations. In response to these complaints, the Greater Noida Authority conducted an inspection and imposed a penalty of ₹46,200 on the society's management for failing to adhere to waste handling regulations. Despite these penalties, residents argue that temporary measures are insufficient, calling for a permanent waste management system. The maintenance agency, YG Estates, has attributed the issue to unfinished areas of the project and disputes the residents' claims. Additionally, the absence of an elected residents' welfare association leaves residents without a formal channel to address their grievances, complicating efforts to resolve the ongoing waste management issues.
