As a nation and living healthy society, a waste management system is needed. Only time will compel us to have a better e-waste management like to one which is there was normal-waste management. An intellectual and educated society can expedite its framing and smooth implementation, which India lacks at this point of time – may blame it on election gaga, political wins, name-sack frame it, priorities elsewhere, society unaware of grave dangers (like plastic waste), importance to electronic developmental rather to include e-waste management, and also to say fruitful business opportunities with clarify on most operational issues.

Need of the hour, be it for beginning, will be
a. clarity on rules / policy, with actionable procedures – who, when, what, why, how, etc. and also required penalty clauses.
b. engage all stakeholders starting with education and ending with deterrent actions for users as well as the products – like information being published in various media, preparing all vendors / suppliers / producers of electronic to have implement the collection and recycle policy.
c. Including current stakeholders of e-waste framework like scrap dealers, petty waste collector, etc. so they are encouraged to adhere the new e-waste management system.
d. regularly review the progress of policy implementation as well as amount of waste collection from producers / vendors and making those available to general public through websites.
e. finally crystallizing the progress into smart reports and progress summary, so as to evaluate cost-benefit of the system.

I like it can be done; only essence of time and urgency will take it forward.
