NEW DELHI: Highlighting how a large share of municipal waste can be prevented from getting dumped at landfills by recycling them, a report prepared by the housing and urban development ministry has recommended a complete ban on the disposal of recyclables at such sites. It has also recommended state pollution control boards and urban development and industry departments introduce a tax for the dumping of all municipal waste in landfills
The report comes at a time when cities are struggling to get rid of mountains of municipal wastes, including the three such big legacy dumpsites in Delhi. Cities are also finding it difficult to find new landfill sites.
The report titled 'Circular Economy in Municipal Solid and Liquid Waste' said: "Disposing of recyclables in landfills/dumpsites not only leads to loss of valued resources but also causes environmental pollution." It has also recommended that the government reduce the GST and other taxes on products made from recycled materials to 5% to encourage the recycling of waste.
The report prepared by experts from the IITs reputed research institutes, and government entities gain importance as a large share of untreated and unprocessed municipal wastes reach dump yards or get into water bodies and pose a major crisis amid a spurt in urbanization with little planning to tackle such challenges.
It has been estimated that proper treatment of municipal solid, wet, and construction wastes can generate nearly Rs 30,000 crore revenue per annum and create employment opportunities for more than one crore people by 2025. Currently, India generates approximately 1.4 lakh tonnes of solid waste daily and 35% of this is dry waste. A major share of dry waste is plastic. The report says that approximately 26,000 tonnes of plastic waste is generated daily and out of these only 15,600 tonnes are recycled. Around 9,400 tonnes are left uncollected and these go to the landfills or water bodies.
The report has estimated that material recycling facilities can help improve recovery from the current Rs 5,187 crore per annum from dry municipal waste to Rs 17,023 crore by 2025.

Felt a small spark of recognition when the post named something I had been struggling to articulate, and a look at trustedonlineshoppingcenter produced more such moments, the rare service of giving readers language for fuzzy intuitions is one of the higher values that good writing can provide and this site offered several today instances.

Coming to this with low expectations and being pleasantly surprised by the substance, and a stop at tabitoshigoto continued exceeding expectations, the recalibration of expectations upward across multiple positive readings is one of the actual rewards of careful browsing and this site is providing that recalibration at a steady rate apparently.

Closed three other tabs to focus on this one and never opened them again, and a stop at toddstarnesbooktour similarly held attention exclusively, content that crowds out other reading from working memory is content with real density and this site has demonstrated that density across multiple pages I have visited so far this morning.
Howarddiz
Liked the way the post got out of its own way, and a stop at emeryflowers extended that invisible craft, the best writing you barely notice while reading because it is doing its work without drawing attention to itself and this site has clearly mastered that disappearing act across the pieces I have read.
NormanJoila
A well calibrated piece that knew its scope and stayed inside it, and a look at ShopWhatTheFreak maintained the same scope discipline, scope creep is one of the failure modes of long blog posts and this site has clearly invested in the editorial discipline to prevent it which shows up in tightly contained pieces.
Wallacelok
Skipped to a specific section because I knew that was the question I had, and the answer was clean, and a stop at licsupport similarly delivered targeted answers without burying them, content engineered for readers who arrive with specific needs rather than open ended browsing is increasingly valuable in a search heavy reading environment.
Tyronelop
Appreciated how the post felt complete without overstaying its welcome, and a stop at ygavexaudition2024 confirmed that economical approach runs across the site, knowing when to stop is a skill many writers never develop but here the discipline is obvious and welcome from the perspective of a busy reader trying to learn things efficiently.
CodyUtese
Felt like I was reading something written by someone who actually thinks about the topic rather than reciting it, and a look at knightstablefoodpantry reinforced that impression, the difference between recited content and considered content is huge and this site clearly belongs to the latter category which I appreciate as a careful reader looking for substance.
JesseMuh
Appreciate how nothing here feels copied or pieced together from other places, the voice is consistent and the tone stays human, and after I checked saveshelterpets I noticed the same style holds, which is a small detail but it makes the whole experience feel personal rather than like another generic site.
Jeffersonsah
Reading carefully this time rather than scanning, and the depth shows up in places I missed first time around, and a look at mdcantaffordjealous rewarded the same careful approach, content that holds up to multiple reads is content I want more of in my regular rotation rather than disposable scroll fodder daily.
Raymonddax
Started forming counter examples to test the claims and the post handled most of them implicitly, and a look at dearsparrows continued that anticipatory style, writers who think two steps ahead of the critical reader save themselves from a lot of follow up work and this writer has clearly internalised that habit consistently.
Lestercex
Probably this is one of the better quiet successes on the open web at the moment, and a look at 34crooke reinforced that quiet success quality, sites that are doing well without making a noise about doing well are the sites I most respect and this one has clearly chosen the quiet success path consistently throughout.
Diegoprory
Now realising the post solved a small problem I had been carrying for weeks, and a look at muralspotting extended that problem solving function, content that connects to specific unresolved questions in my own life rather than just providing general interest is content with real practical impact and this site is providing that practical value.
MarvinFaume
Now noticing that the post avoided the temptation to be funny in places where humour would have undermined the substance, and a stop at christmasintheparkuk maintained the same restraint, knowing when to be serious is a rare editorial virtue and this site has clearly developed it through what I assume is careful editorial practice over years.

Reading this on the train into work was a better use of the commute than my usual choices, and a stop at bigprintnewspapers extended that commute reading well, content that improves transit time rather than just filling it is content with practical benefit and this site has earned its place in my morning commute reading rotation.
SilasWaw
Quiet confidence runs through the whole post, no need to shout to make the points stick, and a stop at DividedHeartsOfAmericaFilm carried that same restrained voice forward, content that respects the reader by trusting its own substance rather than dressing it up in theatrical language is what I look for online and rarely actually find these days.
BruceVum
Looking at this from the perspective of someone tired of generic content the contrast is striking, and a look at douglasand55 maintained that distinctive feel, sites with strong editorial identity stand out against the bland background of algorithmic content and this one has clearly developed an identity worth recognising through careful attention.
ArnoldoLog
Glad I stumbled across this post, the explanations actually make sense without needing background knowledge to follow along, and after a stop at myvetcoach the same was true there, no assumptions about the reader just clear writing that anyone can understand from the first line right through to the end.
CalvinWophy
Reading this on the train into work was a better use of the commute than my usual choices, and a stop at tahwla extended that commute reading well, content that improves transit time rather than just filling it is content with practical benefit and this site has earned its place in my morning commute reading rotation.
VirgilTew
Well structured and easy to read, that combination is rarer than people think, and a stop at ChristmasAtTheWindmill confirmed the same standard runs across the rest of the site, definitely the kind of place I will be coming back to when this topic comes up in conversation later again over the weeks ahead.
RickySob
Felt like the post had been edited rather than just drafted and published, and a stop at navirocapital suggested the same care across the site, the difference between edited and unedited content is enormous for the reader and this site has clearly invested in the editing pass that most blogs skip entirely which really does show up.
DrewSot
Now I want to find more sites like this but I suspect they are rare, and a look at nolaroholdings extended that thought, the few sites that meet this quality bar are precious specifically because they are rare and finding others like them is one of the ongoing projects of careful internet curation across the years.
LonnieBab
The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at albanysuperducks kept that calibration going, getting the depth right for blog format is genuinely difficult because too shallow loses experts and too deep loses beginners but this site nailed it nicely which I really do appreciate.
XanderpuP
I learned more from this short post than from longer articles I read earlier today, and a stop at mcctheatercampaign added even more useful detail without going off topic, this site clearly knows how to keep things focused without sacrificing depth which is a hard balance to strike for any writer.
AlonzoDom
Really appreciate the absence of stock photos that have nothing to do with the content, and a quick visit to nolarotrustee maintained the same restraint, visual filler is a tell that the writing cannot stand on its own and the lack of it here suggests the team has confidence in their content quality alone.
Masonkeymn
Considered against the flood of similar content this one stands apart in important ways, and a stop at loftsonlex extended that distinctive feel, sites that find their own corner of a crowded topic and stay there are sites worth following and this one has clearly carved out its own space and committed to defending it carefully.
Averyemuts
Glad I clicked through from where I did because this turned out to be worth the time spent, and after skyigolf I had a fuller picture, the kind of content that earns its visitors through delivering value rather than chasing them through aggressive advertising or constant pop ups appearing everywhere on the screen lately.
EmilioElunc
Considered as a whole this site has developed a coherent point of view that comes through in individual pieces, and a look at koi-fes continued displaying that coherence, sites with a unified perspective rather than a grab bag of takes are sites with editorial maturity and this one has clearly developed that maturity through years of work.
FinnCag
Reading this prompted me to dig out an old reference book related to the topic, and a stop at clickforstrategicplanning extended that connection to other sources, content that connects me back to my own existing knowledge rather than asking me to forget it is content with continuity and this site has that continuous quality.
MauriceDow
My friends would appreciate a few of these posts and I will be sending links accordingly, and a look at cepjournal added more pages to my share queue, content that earns shares to specific people in specific contexts is content with social utility and this site is generating those targeted shares from me consistently lately.
JordanUlced
Took a quick scan first and then went back to read properly because the post deserved it, and a stop at socalcomedyfest kept me reading carefully too, the kind of writing that earns a slower second pass rather than getting skimmed and forgotten is something I value highly when I happen to find it.
Tobiasanigo
Really appreciate the confidence to make a clear point rather than hedging everything, and a quick visit to neighborsforrandy maintained the same direct stance, writing that takes positions rather than equivocating is more useful even when the positions are debatable because at least the reader has something to react to clearly.
Ronaldlox
Thanks for taking the time to write this, it is clear that some thought went into how each point would land, and after I went through ulvarobond I had a better grip on the topic, real value without the usual marketing noise people have to put up with online when searching for answers.
Nicoexery
Decided to write a short note to the author if there is contact info anywhere, and a stop at invernesscraftsman extended that intention, the urge to thank the writer directly is a strong signal of content quality and this site has triggered that urge in me today which is a fairly rare event for my reading.
RandyCen
A piece that took its time without dragging, and a look at aworldofgin kept the same patient pace, the difference between unhurried and slow is a fine editorial distinction and this site has clearly found the unhurried side without slipping into the slow side which would have lost me as a reader quickly otherwise.
CarterGed
Found the use of subheadings really helpful for scanning back through the post later, and a stop at jestraproperties kept that reader friendly approach going, navigation is something many blog writers ignore but small structural choices make a noticeable difference for someone returning to find a specific point again days or weeks later.
LucasEdusy
Reading this confirmed something I had been suspecting about the topic, and a look at brixelline pushed that confirmation toward greater confidence, content that lines up with independently held intuitions earns a special kind of trust and I will return to writers who consistently land that way for me without overselling positions.
Donovanbak
Considered alongside other sources I have been reading this one consistently rises to the top, and a stop at rockyrose maintained that top ranking, the informal ongoing comparison between sources is something I do whenever reading on a topic and this site keeps coming out near the top of those comparisons over many sessions.
Ibrahimjat
Honestly enjoyed every minute spent here, that is not something I say lightly, and a look at utti-dolci confirmed I will be back, the bar for spending time online is high for me these days but this site clears it without effort which is high praise indeed from this reader who is usually rather demanding.
Prestonfoupt
Came across this looking for something else entirely and ended up reading it through twice, and a look at theblackcrowesmobile pulled me deeper into the site than I planned, the writing has a way of holding attention without resorting to manipulative cliffhangers or vague promises that never get delivered later down the page.
IvanDum
Worth a quiet moment of recognition for the consistency I have noticed across multiple posts, and a stop at stopkrasner continued that consistent quality, sites that maintain quality across many pieces rather than peaking on one viral post are sites with real editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed that discipline carefully.
VanceAwaib
Just wanted to say this was useful and leave a small note of thanks, and a quick visit to morixoholdings earned a similar nod from me, the small acknowledgements add up over time and represent the real economy of trust that good content runs on across the open and increasingly fragmented modern internet.
Lancecruck
Now placing this in the same category as a few other sites I have come to trust, and a look at olympicsbrooklyn continued the placement decision, the small category of fully trusted sites is one I extend rarely and only after multiple positive reading sessions and this site has earned the category placement methodically over time.
Fredamuck
Now feeling the post has earned a proper recommendation rather than a casual mention, and a stop at astoriatogether reinforced the recommendation strength, the difference between mentioning and recommending is a small editorial distinction I observe in my own conversations and this site has earned the upgraded recommendation level from me confidently today.

Thanks for the honest framing without exaggerated claims that the topic will change my life, and a stop at smartconsumerbuyingzone kept the same modest tone, restraint in marketing language signals trustworthiness and the writers here are clearly playing the long game by building credibility rather than chasing immediate clicks through hyperbole.
