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.

For proper RECYCLING of E-waste we should first seggregate harmful e waste and harmless e waste. From that e waste we should seperate out reusable and non reusable e waste. By this method the amount of E waste is reduced to greater extent. New new techniques should be introduced to treat the e waste that remains out from seperation. Instead of destroying total electronic component we should try to use same component with minor repairs. Reduce E-Waste Save Earth!!!

Implementation of E-Waste rules has also created a lot of scope for the corrupt in India. As a component dealer who does not generate any E-Waste, we are being made responsible for collecting E-waste. This commercially only means that, we have to pay the existing "authorised recycler" to "ALLOT" the material that they collect to our name. For this "Service" we are being made to pay the Recycler. Rules should be made in proper way (unlike the way cited above), NOT IN AN arbitrary manner.

Only and only one thing can prevent e-waste is that, all old or dead electronic materials back to shop and get refund some money which can include in price when we purchase..

पटाखों का धुआं पराली के धुएं से 100 गुना ज्यादा खतरनाक होता है जोकि सीधे तौर पर कैंसर पैदा करता है फिर भी रोजाना शादी वीवाह समारोह में भारी मात्रा में पटाखों का इसतेमाल किया जा रहा है आप से नीवेदन है कि दिल्ली NCR मे पटाखों के उत्पादन ,वितरण और इसतेमाल पर सख्ती तौर पर पूरी तरह पाबन्दी लगाईं जाएं।

About food waste of our country : Almost all food production companies uses "food preservatives" in their products that is why their food production remain good in quality for several days...Most of the gam, jelly, syrup and so many other food product do not get waste just because of "food preservatives"So my suggestion is why govt of India donot take inniciative to train whousewives of our country to train them proper and rational use of "food preservatives" in their kitchen.

Thank to every one Presently in modern age every one is using the android mobile who have used the simple keypad mobile. It means they have converted in E-Waste/kachara. Here I want to suggest to Indian gov. that please make a policy on this issue because it will be very dangerous in upcoming time. So please do not throw your e-waste in open area. please keep them in your house. Govt. will make policy on this issue.
