Thane: A total of 82 tons of waste was collected by the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation after the three-day Coldplay concert, the civic body said on Wednesday.

According to the civic body, the generation of waste didn’t impact the cleanliness of Navi Mumbai despite lakhs of people attending the event over three days.

A total of 82 tons and 150 kg of waste was collected over four days from the stadium in Nerul, where the concert was held, and surrounding areas, a release stated.

The NMMC’s waste segregation and disposal at designated scientific waste management facilities not only maintained the city’s cleanliness but also promoted environmental awareness among citizens and visitors, the release stated.

“The Coldplay event was an opportunity to showcase Navi Mumbai’s commitment to sustainability and cleanliness. With the cooperation of various departments and the dedication of our sanitation workers, we were able to uphold the city’s reputation,” said Navi Mumbai Municipal Commissioner Kailash Shinde.
