Waste Mgmt Benchmarks for Smart Cities
Below are the key benchmarks our Smart City team has come up with for Solid Waste Management in Smart Cities:
1)100% households are covered by daily door-step
collection system
2)100% collection of municipal solid waste
3) 100% segregation of waste at source, i.e. bio-
degradable and non-degradable waste
4)100% recycling of solid waste
Kindly help us identify additional benchmarks for Solid Waste Management or refine the above further.
We look forward to your inputs!

I live in Navi Mumbai. Here the Corporation places huge ugly disfigured open containers on the road side for people to deposit their waste. The vegetable vendors, the coconut vendors, the sugar cane juice vendors, the chicken shops and the fish mongers all dump their garbage into these containers for collection by the Corporation once a week or so. The crows, dogs, vermin and garbage pickers spread the contents of these all around, emanating stink and feeding flies and vermin, causing public health hazard. I propose that these garbage containers should be abolished once and for all. Instead, vendors and shopkeepers should keep their garbage in garbage bags and keep it on the curb side only on the day fixed for garbage gathering by the Municipality or Corporation. Anyone violating this system should lose their license and be fined punitively. more

Why these benchmarks should be for the proposed smart cities? Considering the present situation prevailing in our and almost in all other cities cities of the country, raising a question on the success of all these efforts and plans is but natural! The authorities/departments will chalk out the programmes, allocate handsome budgets and spend 100% of the allocations but the situation will continue to remain the same irrespective of even smart cities like our unsmart ones! more

We live in a city with good setup of an efficient system for collection and disposal of waste. The only point of segregation of biodegradable so from the rest is still to be introduced. more
