Solution

The correct option is C Delhi
The North Delhi Municipal Corporation has launched India’s largest waste-to-energy plant at Narela-Bawana. Venkaiah Naidu, Union minister for urban development, inaugurated the project at the Civic Centre. The project will use 2,000 metric tonnes of waste every day to generate 24 megawatts of energy.
The plant is expected to provide respite from overflowing landfill sites in Delhi as it will incinerate the waste to generate power.
