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.

Reading this in the morning set a good tone for the day, and a quick visit to dailyshoppingpoint kept that good tone going, content can do that sometimes when it hits the right notes and finding sites that consistently strike that tone is something I have learned to recognise and reward with regular visits.

If the topic interests you at all this is a place to spend time, and a look at discoverprofessionalinsights reinforced that recommendation, the broader question of where to invest topical reading time is one this site answers convincingly through the consistent quality across multiple pieces I have sampled during the current reading session today.
DevinRen
Liked that the post resisted a sales pitch ending, and a stop at professionalcollaborationhub maintained the no pitch approach, content that ends without trying to convert me into a customer or subscriber is content that has confidence in its own value and this site is clearly playing the long game on reader trust.
YaleGauts
Definitely returning here, that is decided, and a look at urbanretailshoppingzone only made the case stronger, this is one of those rare websites that rewards regular visits rather than feeling stale after the first read which is something I cannot say about most of the places I bookmark today across all my topics.
MarkMup
Time spent here today felt productive in the way that good reading sessions sometimes do, and a stop at digitalbuyingexperience extended that productive feeling across the rest of the morning, the difference between productive reading and merely passing time is real and this site is consistently on the productive side for me lately.
TerryLug
Now wishing I had found this site sooner, and a look at longtermpartnershipnetwork extended that mild regret, the calculation of how many years of good content I missed by not finding the right sources earlier is one I try not to make too often but it does come up sometimes when I find sites this good.
Roccoher
The whole experience of reading this was pleasant from start to finish, no pop ups and no annoying interruptions, and a look at trustedcommercialbonds continued that clean experience, technical choices about page design matter for the reader and this site clearly cares about the small details that add up to comfort across multiple visits.
MosesLen
Looking through other posts here the consistency is what makes the site valuable rather than any single piece, and a stop at modernonlineshoppinghub extended that consistency observation, sites whose value lies in the ongoing pattern rather than in standout posts are sites I trust more deeply and this one has clearly built that kind of trust.
ShermanJovog
Stands out for actually being useful instead of just being long, and a look at buildsmarterdecisions kept that going, length without value is the default mode of most blogs these days but this site has clearly chosen a different path which I respect a lot as a reader who values careful editing decisions like that.
Finngot
This actually answered the question I had been searching for, and after I checked modegenerlshub I had a few more pieces I had not realised I needed, that is the sign of a site that knows what its readers want before they even know how to ask it which is impressive.
Johnniedrusa
Now appreciating that the post did not try to imitate any other style I might recognise, and a stop at topufabetgames continued that distinct voice, content with its own register rather than borrowed from elsewhere is content with real authorial presence and this site has clearly developed that presence through what feels like patient editorial work.
Gregorygen
Just want to say thank you for putting this together, posts like these make searching online actually worth it sometimes, and a quick look at collectiveanchor kept that going, useful and easy to read without any of the tricks that ruin most blog comment sections lately on the wider open web.
MarcoscoitY
Worth pointing out that the writer made the topic feel more interesting than I had been expecting, and a look at securecommercialalliances continued that elevation effect, content that improves the apparent quality of its subject through skilled treatment is doing something real and this site has clearly developed that kind of editorial alchemy throughout.
DonaldKex
A slim post with substantial content per word, and a look at modernonlinepurchase maintained the same density, the content per word ratio is something I track informally and this site scores high on that ratio compared to most sources I read regularly which is a quiet indicator of careful editorial work behind the scenes.
RonaldBog
Now thinking about whether the writer might publish a longer form work I would buy, and a look at nextlevelshoppingexperience suggested the same depth would translate, content that makes me want to pay for related work in other formats is content that has earned commercial trust as well as attention trust and this site has both clearly.
KeaganHom
Bookmark folder created specifically for this site, and a look at longtermstrategicalliances confirmed the dedicated folder was the right call, dedicated folders for individual sites are a level of organisation I rarely deploy and this site has earned that level of dedicated tracking based on the consistency I have seen so far across sessions.
RomanDob
Reading this prompted me to clean up some old notes related to the topic, and a stop at customerfirstshoppinghub extended that organising urge, content that triggers personal organisation rather than just consuming attention is content with motivating energy and this site has the kind of clarity that prompts active follow up rather than passive consumption.
Lorenzoham
Saving this link for the next time someone asks me about this topic, and a look at globalonlinebuyinghub expanded what I will be sharing with them, this is the kind of resource that makes a real difference when you are trying to point a friend to something useful and reliable rather than generic marketing pages.
Ibrahimhauts
Reading this prompted me to dig into a related topic later, and a stop at sunweaveboutique provided some of the starting points for that follow up reading, content that triggers further exploration rather than satisfying curiosity completely is content with real generative energy and this site has plenty of that energy throughout it.
Konnorbix
Reading this fit naturally into my afternoon walk because I was reading on my phone, and a stop at learnandgrowdigitally continued well in that walking format, content that survives mobile reading without becoming awkward is content with format flexibility and this site has clearly thought about how it reads across different devices today.
BradleyHew
If you scroll past this site without looking carefully you will miss something, and a stop at businessrelationshipplatform extended that mild warning, the surface of the site does not advertise its quality loudly which means careful attention is required to recognise what is being offered here which is itself a kind of editorial signal.
SeanLom
Came across this and immediately thought of a friend who would enjoy it, and a stop at trustedcorporateconnections 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.
WesleyArrem
Speaking from the perspective of having read widely on the topic this site offers something distinct, and a look at discoverbetterpaths reinforced that distinctness, the rare site that contributes something genuinely original to a saturated topic is the rare site worth following carefully and this one has demonstrated that original contribution capability today.
GeraldArize
Now realising this site has been quietly doing good work for longer than I knew, and a look at buyinghubonline suggested an archive worth exploring, sites with deep archives of consistent quality represent a different kind of resource than sites with viral hits and this one looks like the durable kind based on what I see.
DravenJob
Found a small mental shift after reading this, the framing here is just a bit different from the standard takes online, and a look at smartpurchaseecosystem extended that fresh perspective across more material, the rare site whose voice actually changes how you think about something rather than just confirming existing beliefs.
LucaSNONA
Really clear writing, the kind that makes you want to share the link with someone who has been asking about the topic, and a quick browse through clicktoexploreinnovations only made me more sure of that, the information here stays useful long after the first read is done which says a lot.
SamuelTeact
Came away feeling slightly smarter than I was when I started, that is a real win, and a stop at clickforbusinesslearning added a bit more to that, the rare site that actually transfers some of its knowledge to the reader in a way that sticks rather than just creating an illusion of learning briefly.
Kadescata
Now I want to find more sites like this but I suspect they are rare, and a look at clicktolearnandgrow 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.
KendallJah
Reading this prompted me to clean up some old notes related to the topic, and a stop at learnfromexpertinsights extended that organising urge, content that triggers personal organisation rather than just consuming attention is content with motivating energy and this site has the kind of clarity that prompts active follow up rather than passive consumption.
AsherGoock
Honest reaction is that this is the kind of writing I would defend in a conversation about good blog content, and a look at learnfuturefocusedskills reinforced that, the rare site whose work I would actively recommend rather than just tolerate is the kind I want to support through return visits regularly.
Sonnysof
Closed the tab and immediately reopened it ten minutes later because I wanted to reread a part, and a stop at newdmkey drew the same return, content that pulls you back after closing it is doing something well beyond the average and worth marking as exceptional in my mental catalogue of reliable sites.

Just one of those reads that left me feeling slightly more capable rather than overwhelmed, and a look at smartpurchaseecosystem kept that empowering feel going, the difference between content that builds the reader up and content that intimidates them is huge and this site clearly knows which side of that line to stand.
Leonpug
Felt like the post had been edited rather than just drafted and published, and a stop at trustedretailplatform 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.
ArnoldoMow
Liked the way the post balanced confidence and humility, and a stop at toriters1 maintained the same balance, knowing when to assert and when to acknowledge uncertainty is a sign of mature thinking and the writers here have clearly developed that calibration through what I assume is years of careful work on their craft.

RonaldApops
Looking at this objectively the editorial quality is hard to deny even setting aside personal taste, and a stop at cornerpeak maintained the same objective quality, the gap between what I personally enjoy and what is objectively well crafted exists and this site clears both bars simultaneously which is rarer than it sounds.

On reflection this is the kind of writing that improves my taste for what is possible in the format, and a look at buildlongtermbusinessvision continued raising that bar, content that elevates my expectations rather than lowering them is doing important work in calibrating my standards and this site is participating in that elevation reliably.
Clydeacaky
Reading this gave me confidence to make a decision I had been putting off, and a stop at longtermvaluepartnership reinforced that confidence, content that translates into action in my own life rather than just informing it is content with the highest practical value and this site is generating that action level utility for me lately.
JorgeFon
Genuine pleasure to read, and that is not something I say often after a casual click through, and a quick visit to enterpriseunityframework kept the same feeling going across the rest of the site, finding writing that actually feels good to spend time with rather than just functional is increasingly rare on the open web.
Duncanzef
Genuine reaction is that I will probably think about this on and off for a few days, and a look at modernpurchasehub 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.
Marvinfob
Walked away with a clearer head than I had before reading this, and a quick visit to clicktoexploregrowthideas only sharpened that, the writing has a way of cutting through the noise that surrounds most topics online which is something I will definitely remember the next time I am searching for an answer to anything.
Ricobot
Bookmark earned, share earned, return visit earned, all from one reading session, and a look at trustedshoppingplatform did the same, the trifecta of bookmark and share and return is rare in a single visit and represents the highest level of engagement I tend to offer any piece of online content these days here.
MauriceSib
Well done, the writing is professional without being stiff, and the topic is treated with care, and a look at reliabledealshoppinghub reflected that approach, the kind of site I would point a colleague to if they asked for a reliable starting point on this topic in the future without any hesitation at all.
Bertunlon
Reading this post made me realise I had been settling for lower quality elsewhere, and a look at clicktoadvanceknowledge extended that recalibration, content that exposes how much I had been accepting in adjacent sources is content with calibrating effect on my standards and this site is performing that calibration function across topics for me reliably.
XanderTeelo
Stands out for actually being useful instead of just being long, and a look at enterprisebondsolutions kept that going, length without value is the default mode of most blogs these days but this site has clearly chosen a different path which I respect a lot as a reader who values careful editing decisions like that.
Peterhar
Reading this gave me material for a conversation I needed to have anyway, and a stop at learnandadvanceonline added even more talking points, content that connects to upcoming social or professional needs rather than just being interesting in the abstract is the kind that earns priority placement in my attention these days routinely.

A piece that earned its conclusions through the body rather than asserting them at the end, and a look at explorelongtermopportunities maintained the same earned quality, conclusions that follow from what came before are more persuasive than declarations and this site has clearly internalised that principle in how it constructs arguments throughout pieces.
