Electronic waste (e-waste) creates a global crisis due to environmental degradation. India, as a growing economy, is facing serious challenges in managing the volume of generated e-waste due to lack of environmental awareness and socio-economic issues. Major concern of e-waste management in India is its recycling undertaken by non-formal sector not adhering to health and environmental norms.

While e-waste poses a problem for the environment it is also a source of valuable resources and contains a number of precious metal and mineral resources, which are available in very limited quantities in nature.

While Ministry of Environment and Forests and Climate Change is involved in enacting laws, guidelines referring to e-waste and has formulated the E-Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 2010 wrt safe handling of e-waste, Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY) has addressed indigenous technology development through its R&D efforts to recycle e-waste and extract pressure resources following environment and health norms.

In this direction DeitY has initiated a demonstration plant to showcase its developed technology of processing printed circuit boards (PCB) to recover precious metals at Bangalore. DeitY also proposes to provide capital subsidy to authorized recyclers for processing e-waste similar to support available under the M-SIPS scheme of DeitY. Further recyclers using indigenous technology could be given additional advantage.

DeitY seeks views and suggestion to address the e-waste issues both in term of technology development as well as policy initiatives.

Comments should be received by 10th February, 2015.

I think we need to focus on creating a lot of awareness and action which can only be done by creating a basic scrap dealer model where people get paid , technology and process will be developed only when the need is felt or an oppurtunity is present for buissness hence more focus has to be on developing buissness models something like how renewable energy is dealt by the government

I would like to discuss about the dust in the city. Brooming aside the sand won't keep away the dust. It should be taken away by the municipality and thrown or used in a construction. If done every day I believe the city would be clean. We already have a lot of pollution in the air. At least by taking away the sand or dust will help reduce the pollution. It will be good for our kids and asthma suffering patients. Thank You.

The history will demonstrate that if we became 15% of the population in any corner of the world, the other non-violent population became automatically the Muslim as our religion is for the expansion of the horizon of the Islam without having the limitation of the boundaries of the different nation. Thus, the two nation theory was not created by Jinnah as he was the son of a Hindu, but by Mahatma Gandhi and the opportunist politician i.e. Nehru and his associate.

The country was protected by the apprehended exchange of one Air Martial with a terrorist. People should remember that Abdul Kalam Azad has said in his deliberation just after the Independence of India that we were opposing the creation of the Pakistan not because of the reason that we do not want to follow Darul-e-Islam upon Darul-e- hurb but we were oppose to take only one by fourth of the territory as prior to the subjugation of this country by the British Empire, Muslims remain in power.

This envisaged that there was a thrust to have the secularism being adhered with as Jinnah was more secular than Abdul Kalam Azad and Sir Syed and Devband. If you go through the perception of the true history, the son of Zakir Hussain, who was plying the aircraft, has given a shift to cross the Indian Border as to enter into the zone of Pakistan, Air Martial Arjun Singh, who was sitting in that plane has taken out the revolver, enter into the cockpit and put it upon his head with a warning to ki

This was shown by British manifestation to get the eradication of the prevailing maladies generated by the axes subjugation of the Muslim aggression which was equivalent to the worst curse. The more educated and well of Hindus tried to prevent sophisticated excuses for being submissive and to adhere with the norms of non-violence, whatsoever, no matter, what the ruler did they took it lying down. Gandhi recommended that if one was slapped on the cheek instead of slapping back the other cheek sho

. Hindus were afraid and concealed their resentment towards invaders, who were the object of hatred. This was equivalent to the worst curse and Gandhi repeatedly recommended such submission.

Molestation for their sisters and seducing his son on seventh ocean is such a sadistic in drawing satisfaction by hurting the sentiments of nationalists to attempt for committing the perversity upon portrayal of deities projecting sexual union with animals without being aware with the history of the period of subjugation and abrogation of these people gratifying a Slave’s frustrated Ego Indian denigrate during the payment of Zajiya (khirajguzar) may allow without hesitation Qazi (Mughisu
