Citizen Feedback on C&D Waste Management
C&D Waste Management Rules 2016
However, 4 states namely Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Chandigarh and Uttarakhand did not form their state's Solid Waste Management nor their C&D waste management policy. As a result on Aug 31, 2018, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has banned construction in these 4 states.
While having a policy is just step 1, almost every state in India has failed in enforcing it. We would like to now seek your inputs on what have you observed in your state in regards to enforcement of these rules. How are these rules being followed or not followed? Are the local municipal corporations enforcing these rules in your city?
We look forward to your inputs! more
