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.

Please watch this special report made on the plight of rag pickers forced to survive on the Bhalaswa Landfill. They can be the best foot soldiers for Swatch Bharat Abhiyaan. They may be illiterate due to abject poverty but they have basic skills for waste management. They urgently need institutional support, help. Our PM sure can help these poor souls by giving them options of a dignified livelihood. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxbZKJCoTtA&t=1039s). Sandeep Yash, RSTV #SwachhBharat, #MeitY

Local bodies like Munciple Corporations,Nagar Panchayat having lot of space across the cities if they started e -waste collection centers or make them mandatory from 5 Jun World Environment Day .They have expertise for collection of waste so they can manage Collection of Electin & Electronic waste is vary costly a fair so local bodies make compulsory to open centers ward or locality wise.Once organised collection started then transporting & disposal by recycling will become easy.

Hey sir as we are moving towards digital india. We need people to be technically good and we have schools and colleges where students are provided only thoretical knowledge. We can use the broken electronics that are in good condition to teach students how things work. Some that are completely dead can ne disassembled and their parts can be used to tell students in detail about them. As practical knowledge is good , some students may be inspired from them and create new things.#MyGov

हम अखबार को पढ़ने के बाद संभाल लेते है क्योंकि वह बिक जाता है। लेकिन चिप्स खाकर पैकेट को रास्ते मे फैंक देते है,अगर सफाई कर्मचारी रोज़ घरों से कूड़ा उठाने के बजाए कूड़ा खरीदे eg biodegradable rs 5/kg & non bio rs 4/kg और उस कूड़े को नगरपालिका मैं जमा करे 8/kg & 6/kg तो लोगबाग कूड़े को अलग कर और संभाल कर रखेंगे साथ ही सफाई कर्मचारी सुबह सवेरे उठ कर कूड़ा खरीदने जाएँगे । और लोगबाग कूडे को बाहर फेकने से कतराएंगे। इस व्यवस्था को और संजीदा करने के लिए सफाई कर्मचारियों को एक वाहन प्रदान हो। एक नई व्यवस्था

Government must levy an additional tax on high end e-devices which can be used further as incentives in collection of e-waste which in turn can be used to make roads, bridges or even 3D printed houses in hilly terrain in particular.
