The electronics waste (e-waste) comprises of discarded electrical and electronic equipment, and poses serious challenges globally for improper disposal practices especially in informal sector.

Hon’ble PM has emphasized the need for creating awareness for environmental issues under “Swach Digital Bharat’ during his address at NASSCOM event on 01.03.2015. On the direction of Hon’ble PM, MeitY has initiated the “Awareness Programme on Environmental Hazards of Electronic Waste through Digital India Initiative” over a period of five years to create awareness among the public about the hazards of e-waste recycling by the informal sector and educate them about alternate methods of disposing their e-waste.

Over 95 per cent of e-waste generated is managed by the informal sector. Integration of the informal sector and access to environmentally safe recycling technologies may reduce the health and environmental hazards. In addition to technology, capacity building, skill management, scientific recycling mechanism, business management training are also required for safe recycling of e-waste.

In this context, MeitY is inviting citizen inputs to provide solution for leakage of E-Waste in the informal sector, and suggest proper recycling technology for E-Waste that is economically available.

The last date of submission of suggestions is 4th April, 2018.

For any further information about E-Waste, please visit the GREENE website.

Sir first change the mind sets of the people and then automatically our societys will become clean and green. If we are cleaning the societies and they don't know the responsiblities of cleaness and they think that we are cleaning the societies and why we should do it. We can't control the waste of each and every state of this country india is a big country and it has huge population. Then we can proceed for establishing more companies for helping them.and then after we should dump it.

We are proud of Modi government for scaling up the expectation of government from general public as public had been kept in dark by previous governments on e-governace on massive scale for keeping for getting votes and folling them continueously. Now Modi has changed the mind set but understanding of public can be enhanced by giving the definition of leakage and re-cycling of E-Waste in all print and electronic media by default without additional cost to government in improving public knowledge

You politician, media, businessman, film stars made a society, where you all enjoy all the services & preferances and you all deprive general citizens. You all thinks , that general citizens are ants like. But god also lives in ants.Please see the bollywood movie 'OMG'.

According to the e-waste survey, local governments want the CIWMB to advocate on their behalf for extended producer responsibility that would shift end-of life management responsibility from government-sponsored programs to manufacturers and retailers. Manufacturer take-back of electronics would provide industry with an incentive to reduce the toxicity of products and to design products that are more easily recycled.
