While Nagpur Metropolitan Region Development Authority (NMRDA) has asked all brick kiln owners in north and east Nagpur to relocate, Mahagenco simply doesn’t have space for all of them. There are about 450 kilns near the city but Mahagenco has space for only 105 in the two lands having total area of 53 acres. Authorities are clueless how to solve the problem.
Mahagenco Ash Management Services (Mahagams) had planned a fly-ash brick cluster in 2017. At that time, kiln owners were to shift to the cluster voluntarily. Consequently, the project did not take off. Now, the owners are under compulsion but Mahagenco can’t accommodate all of them.
