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.

Just wanted to say this was useful and leave a small note of thanks, and a quick visit to modernonlinepurchase 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.

Now noticing that the post never raised its voice even when making a strong point, and a look at trustedbusinessconnections continued that calm volume, content that can make important points without resorting to typographic emphasis or emotional appeal is content that trusts its substance to do the work and this site has that confidence consistently.
Donovanwrame
Thanks for keeping things clear and to the point, that is honestly hard to find online these days, and after reading through levelfrstdm the message stayed consistent which makes me trust the information being shared more than I usually do on similar pages that cover this same kind of topic.
CassidyFlord
Honest take is that I will probably forget most of what I read online today but this post is one I will remember, and a stop at trustedcorporatebonding kept that same memorable quality going, certain writing leaves a residue in the mind in a way most content simply does not manage.
Forrestfef
Decided to read more before commenting and the more I read the more I wanted to say something, and a stop at globalshoppingplace pushed that impulse further, when content provokes the urge to participate rather than just consume it is doing something quite specific and worth recognising clearly when it happens during reading.
Rexnatry
Worth your time, that is the simplest endorsement I can give, and a stop at securebusinessbonding extends that endorsement across the rest of the site, this is one of those increasingly rare places that delivers on what it promises rather than over selling the content and under delivering on substance every time which I find frustrating elsewhere.
Stephenzet
Thank you for keeping the writing honest and the points easy to verify against your own experience, and a stop at enterprisepartnershipsolutions reflected the same approach, no exaggeration just steady useful content that I can take with me into my own work without second guessing every sentence I happen to read here.
ReneSox
Halfway through I knew I would finish the post, and a stop at findsmarteroptions also held me through to the end, content that signals its quality early and then sustains it is content with real internal consistency and this site has clearly figured out how to maintain quality from opening sentence through to closing thought.
JohnnieCow
Felt the writer respected me as a reader without making a show of doing so, and a look at clicktoexplorefutures continued that quiet respect, this is the kind of small but meaningful detail that separates the sites I bookmark from the ones I close after a single skim and never return to again no matter how interesting the headline.
Winstoncot
Quietly enthusiastic about this site after the past few hours of reading, and a stop at futureorientedretailshop extended that enthusiasm, the calibration of enthusiasm to evidence is something I try to maintain and this site has earned a calibrated quiet enthusiasm rather than the loud excitement that usually fades within a day or two of finding something.
Todrorry
Probably one of the more reliable sources I have found for this kind of careful coverage, and a look at buildlongtermbusinessvision reinforced the reliability, the small group of sources I would describe as reliable for a given topic is curated carefully and this site has earned a place in that small group through consistent performance.
RustyReect
If a friend asked me where to read carefully on the topic I would send them here without hesitation, and a look at discoverprofessionalinsights confirmed the recommendation strength, the directness of my recommendation reflects how confident I am in the quality and this site has earned undiluted recommendations from me across multiple recent conversations actually.
Royimmix
Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at professionalcollaborationbonds showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.
KaneLople
Probably the kind of site that should be more widely read than it appears to be, and a look at sablefernshop reinforced that quiet wish, the gap between a sites quality and its apparent reach is sometimes large and that gap exists for this site in a way that makes me want to mention it more.
Deonkem
Glad to find a site whose links lead somewhere worth going rather than back to itself for SEO juice, and a stop at centurionbond kept that generous outbound feel, citing other peoples work with real respect rather than just for ranking signals is a sign of an honest operation worth supporting going forward.
JavierAcign
Now sitting back and recognising that this was a small but real win in my reading day, and a stop at trustedonlineshoppingcenter extended that quiet win, the cumulative effect of small reading wins versus the cumulative effect of small reading losses is real over time and this site is contributing to the wins side of that ledger.
BradenMic
Once I trust a site this much I tend to read everything they publish and that is the trajectory I am on with this one, and a stop at learnandadvancehere confirmed the trajectory, the rare progression from interested reader to comprehensive reader is something only certain sites earn and this one is earning that progression rapidly.
Ricardomap
Now appreciating the way the post avoided the temptation to be longer than necessary, and a look at toptechnewz11 continued that lean approach, content with the discipline to stop when finished rather than padding for length is content that respects both itself and its readers and this site has that disciplined editorial culture clearly throughout.
KeaganHom
Really appreciate that the writer did not stretch the post to hit some target word count, the points end when they are made, and a stop at longtermstrategicalliances reflected the same discipline, brevity is generosity in disguise and this site has clearly figured that out far better than most blog operations have.
Damionruimi
Came across this and immediately thought of a friend who would enjoy it, and a stop at enterprisegrowthpartnerships also reminded me of someone, content that triggers the urge to share is content that has earned my recommendation and this site has earned multiple from me already across different conversations during the week.
WalkerBag
Reading this confirmed that my time researching the topic in other places had not been wasted, and a stop at nextgenonlinebuying extended the confirmation, when independent sources agree that is a useful signal and this site is one of the more reliable sources I have found for cross checking what I read elsewhere on similar subjects.
Kyrievat
Took longer than expected to finish because I kept stopping to think, and a stop at securebuyingstore did the same to me, content that provokes thought rather than just delivering information is in a different category and the team here is clearly working at that higher level rather than just cranking out posts.
DonovanAxows
Refreshing to find writing that does not try to manipulate the reader into clicking onto the next page through cliffhangers and forced engagement, and a stop at magzineviralzhubz continued in the same respectful way, this is what reader first design actually looks like in practice rather than just in marketing copy that sounds nice.
ChristopherZorge
Closed the post with a small satisfied sigh, and a stop at dailyshoppingexperience produced the same gentle exhale, content that ends well is content that respects the rhythm of reading and the writers here have clearly thought about how their pieces close rather than just trailing off when they run out of things to say.
QuincyREd
Glad the writer did not feel compelled to cover every possible angle of the topic, focus is a virtue, and a stop at reliabledealshoppingplace reflected the same disciplined scope, knowing what to leave out is half of what makes good writing good and this post has clearly been edited with that principle in mind.

Worth saying that the post fit naturally into a rhythm of careful reading, and a stop at professionalbondsolutions extended the same rhythm, content that pairs well with how I actually read rather than demanding a different mode is content well calibrated to its likely audience and this site has clearly thought about that consistently.
AxelNat
Found the section structure particularly thoughtful, and a stop at strategicgrowthalliances suggested the same care across the broader site, structural choices guide the reader through the material in ways most people do not consciously notice but feel the absence of when those choices are made carelessly or not at all.
Damionawawl
Picked this post to share in a Slack channel where I knew it would be appreciated, and a look at clicktofindsolutions suggested I will share more from here later, content worth sharing into a professional context is content that has earned a higher kind of trust than mere personal interest and this site has it.
Yalewairl
Refreshing to find writing that does not try to manipulate the reader into clicking onto the next page through cliffhangers and forced engagement, and a stop at learnandgrowprofessionally continued in the same respectful way, this is what reader first design actually looks like in practice rather than just in marketing copy that sounds nice.
Davonzep
Decided after reading this that I would check this site weekly going forward, and a stop at corporatecollaborationnetwork reinforced that commitment, deciding to add a site to a regular rotation requires meeting a quality bar that very few places clear and this one cleared it cleanly without any noticeable effort or marketing push behind it.
DavionGem
Genuine reaction is that I will probably think about this on and off for a few days, and a look at clicktoexploremarketideas added fuel to that, the best content lingers in your head after you close the tab rather than evaporating immediately and this site clearly knows how to write that kind of memorable content.
Rickysen
My usual pattern is to skim and bounce but this site has reset that pattern temporarily, and a stop at longtermcorporateconnections maintained the slower reading mode, content that changes how I read is content with structural influence and this site has clearly nudged my reading behaviour toward something better at least for the duration of these visits.
Vincenteteve
Refreshing to read something where the words actually mean something instead of filling space, and a stop at reliablecorporatealliances kept that going, the writing here trusts the reader to follow along without endless repetition or constant reminders of what was already said earlier in the post which I appreciate.
GlenRar
Reading this prompted me to send the link to two different people for two different reasons, and a stop at sustainablegrowthpartners provided ammunition for a third share, content that suits multiple audiences without being generic enough to be useless to any of them is genuinely valuable and this site has that multi audience quality clearly.
GuillermoNuasp
A piece that did not require external context to follow, and a look at cohesionbond maintained the same self contained quality, content that stands alone without forcing readers to chase prerequisites is more accessible and this site has clearly thought about how each piece can serve a fresh visitor rather than only existing members.
Roccophymn
Just sat back at the end of the post and felt grateful that someone took the time to write it, and a look at globalenterprisealliances extended that gratitude across more of the site, recognising effort behind quality work is part of what makes the open web a community rather than just a marketplace today.
Masonneept
Genuine reaction is that this site clicked with how I like to read, and a look at toptenufabetgames kept that comfortable fit going, sometimes you find a place online whose editorial decisions just align with your preferences and when that happens it is worth recognising and supporting through repeat engagement consistently going forward.
Danielfus
Now realising the post has been quietly doing important work in my mind for the past hour, and a stop at globalcommercialalliances extended that quiet processing, content that continues to do work after I close the tab is content with afterlife in the mind and this site is producing those long lived effects at a meaningful rate.
EdmundFem
Honest opinion is that this is the kind of post that builds long term trust with readers, and a look at mindfulwellnesshq reinforced that perception, the slow accumulation of trust through consistent quality is the only sustainable way to build a real audience and this site is clearly playing that long game.
Marvinmob
Reading this slowly to absorb the structure, and the structure is doing real work alongside the words, and a look at wildthistlemarket maintained the same architectural quality, when sentence shapes and paragraph rhythms reinforce the meaning rather than just transporting words you know you are reading skilled work today.
Jacegen
Granted I am giving this site more credit than I usually give new finds, and a look at secureecommercebuying continued earning that credit, the calibration of how much trust to extend after limited exposure is something I do carefully and this site has earned more trust on shorter exposure than most due to consistent quality across.
Sheldonraito
However many similar pages I have read this one taught me something new, and a stop at clicktoexploreinnovations added more new material, content that contributes genuinely fresh information rather than recycling what is already widely available is content with real informational value and this site is providing that informational freshness at a notable rate.
FelixDor
Worth recognising that this site does not chase the daily news cycle, and a stop at reliabledealshoppingplace confirmed the longer publication arc, sites that resist the pressure to comment on every passing event are sites with genuine editorial discipline and this one has clearly chosen depth over volume which I respect deeply.
Raytog
Ended up here on a wandering afternoon and was glad I stayed for the read, and a stop at discoverstrategicoptions extended the wandering into a proper exploration of the site, the kind of place that rewards aimless clicking with something genuinely interesting rather than the shallow content that mostly populates the modern open web.
KeaganTrene
Liked everything about the experience, from the opening through to the closing notes, and a stop at reliablepurchasehub extended that into more pages, finding a site where the editorial vision shows through every choice rather than feeling random is an increasingly rare experience and one I am glad to have today during this particular reading session.
GordonMex
Felt like the writer was speaking directly to someone with my level of curiosity, neither talking down nor showing off, and a stop at discovernewmarketangles kept that comfortable matching going, finding writing that meets you where you are rather than asking you to climb up or stoop down feels great every time it happens.
RolandoErolf
Now planning to come back when I have the right kind of attention to read carefully, and a stop at futurefocusedalliances reinforced that plan, choosing the right moment to read certain content is a quiet form of respect for the work and this site is generating those careful planning behaviours from me consistently as a reader.
MattRes
Worth marking this site as one to come back to deliberately rather than by accident, and a stop at growwithinformedchoices reinforced that intention, the difference between sites I find again by chance and sites I return to on purpose is meaningful and this one has clearly moved into the deliberate return category for me.
AronJow
Reading this in my last reading slot of the day was a good way to end, and a stop at clickforgrowthinsights provided a satisfying close to the reading session, content that ends a day well rather than agitating it before sleep is the kind I value increasingly and this site fits that role for me consistently now.
