Environmental Consciousness | Case study

Case study: Keep your city clean Project

The Swachh Bharath Mission, of Clean India Mission, is a country wide campaign initiated by the government of India in 2014.

It is focused on eliminating open defection and improving solid waste management across cities in India.

The Challenge

The soaring urban population and increasing consumption has led to rapid increase in waste across our cities in India. Segregation of waste into biodegradable and dry materials at the source is critical for sustainable waste management. Lack of access of recycling bins is the largest deterrent to recycling.

Solution

In an effort to support the Central governments efforts to improve solid waste management, RKFL launched the Keep your city Clean Project. A partnership was forged with Newage Clean Solutions to ensure that 45 bins will be installed across Jamshedpur and regularly maintained.

Impact

✓ Income opportunities were provided to the training team hired to maintain these bins in

Jamshedpur

✓ E-Rickshaws are used for collection which ensures a lower carbon footprint
