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.

Government should open e-waste collection centers... And give money to consumers.. And from these centres collect all e-waste and try to repair them and sell with low cost

a Electronic waste recycle center should be made in every city, so that Mass Electronic/ Electrical waste can be recycled by re using of Electronic/ Electrical components. After removing PCB, Sensors, Diods, Transistors, Chips, wires from e-waste, It can be re-used or re assembled by company . As Many village people are reusing the waste wires and Copper. So we need more advance recycle center , so that every electronic waste can be recycled.

Superficial dismantling: Hazardous components and high valuable components, like printed circuit boards, should removed only and the remaining parts are destined for mechanical separation/recycling. Medium level dismantling: manual dismantling of components into more or less pure materials and recyclable fractions is conducted where viable with reasonable effort. we can even recycle and reuse the e waste by making differnt product like box from their body. etc and many more.

E-waste should be collected properly by the manufacturer them self since they should have social responsibility and they should encourage the reusage/recycling of such waste.

To sum up in one sentence, if a citizen is paid for submitting any e-waste just like we had been doing for newspapers, all the issues related to mismanging it will not exist. Install more vending machines to accept e-waste nd get rewarded in return. #SwachBharat, #MeitY, #MyGov
