"It is a humongous task to clean up the mess at an altitude of over 3,000m. We are first segregating the waste and then putting them in bags before loading in the trucks. The functions for the weddings had begun on June 18 and the celebrations continued till June 22. Our teams are working here since the first day," a sanitation employee working at the site said over phone.Panwar added that the Gupta brothers have also offered to donate a dumper which would cost around Rs 12 lakh.Meanwhile, Chamoli district administration is preparing an exhaustive report on the weddings for which it had used a hi-tech drone for the first time. "The drone recorded every detail of the weddings and on its basis, a comprehensive report would be submitted to the Uttarakhand high court on July 8," said a senior district administration official.Earlier, on June 18, the Nainital high court had said that the Chamoli district magistrate will be held accountable for compliance of the court's order to minimise environmental damages caused due to the high-profile weddings in Auli. The court had also asked the Gupta family to deposit Rs 3 crore to be used to restore the area after events were over.
