Delhi, according to a recent survey, is among the high waste generating cities owing to its rapid rate of growth, mushrooming of unauthorised colonies, slums and high level of inward migration - report The Hindu Modern technology has undoubtedly provided copious advantages, but simultaneously has also generated large quantities of waste which is discarded in the name of garbage. Not only industrial waste but even domestic waste is today just disposed and not handled Solid waste management has emerged as one of the biggest challenges today in urban India.
