Inputs Sought: Garbage Burning in India
We will compile a checklist to be shared with our leadership and then disseminate it to all ULBs across India.
Swachh Bharat Mission
1. Burning garbage openly should be completely banned and created awareness about by ULBs
2. Checks should be made by roping in Citizen Reporting with Municipal/Police enforcement
3. The organic and hazardous garbage should be burnt through an incinerator to avoid air pollution
4. RWAs and other resident bodies should make sure that the residents are strictly advised on not burning garbage
5. Large compost pits/bins should be maintained in every society/colony
6. RWAs should be authorised to fine anyone found burning garbage in their area
7. Awareness should be improved to reduce burning of rubber/plastic materials openly
8. People should be educated about the diseases caused by burning waste in open
9. Private vendors should be engaged for door to door garbage pickup free of cost
10. Every district should have at least one garbage treatment plant. more
