MINISTER OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT & POVERTY ALLEVIATION( SHRI JAGMOHAN )
(a): No, Sir. It is the responsibility of the Municipal
Corporations & Urban Local Bodies to chalk out necessary action
plan for Solid Waste Management. In order to assist the Urban
Local Bodies, the Ministry of Urban Development & Poverty
Alleviation has set up a Technology Advisory Group on Solid
Waste Management to collect and disseminate information on
proven technologies, research and development, financial
resources, scope for private sector participation, capacity
building, etc. A comprehensive Mannual on Solid Waste
Management has also been published by the Ministry for guidance
of Urban Local Bodies. The Ministry of Environment & Forests

Rules, 2000 according to which every Municipal Authority would
be responsible for the implementation of the provisions of these
rules and for any infrastructure development for collection,
storage, segregation, transportation, processing and disposal of
municipal solid waste. State Pollution control Boards and
Committees in Union Territories have been informed to set up
interaction with each and every municipal authority in the
State/UT for preparing city/town-wise action plan for management
of municipal solid waste.

Agriculture and Non-Conventional Enengy Sources, Central

projects from municipal solid wastes respectively. State-wise
details are given at Annexure I and II respectively.
(d) to (f): Some State Governments, such as Gujarat & Kerala
