Gravity of the situation with respect to Solid Waste Management

�� India has a population of 1027 million (2001 census), India has a population of 1027 million (2001 census), out of which 285 million live in urban areasout of which 285 million live in urban areas

�� Estimated 42 million tons of municipal solid waste Estimated 42 million tons of municipal solid waste (MSW) is generated annually, i.e., 1.15 lakh tons (MSW) is generated annually, i.e., 1.15 lakh tons dailydaily
