यद् आदित्य-गतम् तेजो
जगद भासयते ‘खिलम्
यच चन्द्रमासी यच चाग्नू
तत तेजो विद्धि मामकं

The brilliance of the sun,
which disperses the darkness of the world,
the luminosity of the moon,
and the intensity of fire are also from Me.

– Lord Krishna, the Great Teacher!

True Knowledge leads to the path of Growth

Digital India needs ways to manage its Digital Waste

Soft Talent to Power Progress: Finally it would dawn on India as a state policy to push digitization of India. It is a long overdue effort considering that for many years India and its soft talent has been reckoned as global power house. Yet the country itself could never leverage its own talent to efficiently manage its affairs.

Since much of the reason for India excelling in digital domain was largely due to private individual and corporate efforts. Now with the same becoming state sponsored effort this will indeed result in all encompassing transformation of the entire nation to the benefit of its citizen.

Digital India is much needed, so is Digital Waste Redressal

The enormity of the project, the ambitious coverage and the wide and deep ramifications it would have through all its nine pillars and especially electronics Manufacturing, Universal Access to devices for ICT would include creation of huge digital infrastructure.

There will be Wi-Fi at schools, universities and public wi-fi hotspots. The Post Offices to be turned into Multi-Service Centres with all gadgetry installed. Manufacturing of FABS, Fab-less design, Set top boxes, VSATs, Mobiles, Consumer & Medical Electronics, Smart Energy meters, Smart cards, micro-ATMs. The aim of the project is to deliver government services to the citizens directly. The government also wants to ensure smart phones in the hand of every citizen by 2019.

The Digital Waste Challenge: The Digital India Project document does inform about the challenges on the implementation of such a large project in terms of unprecedented scale; Human & Financial resource mobilization apart from the intra government coordination. However, it misses out on the fallout of the electronic mess that would be created in the years to come.

E Waste from Electronic Obsolescence: It is a well known fact the obsolescence of Electronics is the quickest. It is not difficult to understand what sort of E Waste would be generated from projects of such proportions and sweeping geographical coverage.

Though there has been a passing reference on the linking of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan but that too to create awareness and support for the ongoing governmental activities for participation and disposal of municipal waste.

We certainly hope the authorities would take into account the e waste challenge that fall out of digitalizing India. It needs to be highlighted and understood before the problem just stomp us in the face with our efforts falling short. That would be one of the grave failures of such a glorious project. A comprehensive view is much warranted for Digitizing India.

Indeed the mission is onerous and the goal is high, to #MakeIndiaEWasteClean. #ZeroWaste understands to achieve such a goal and to sustain the endeavour for long a concerted effort has to be put in based on professional lines. ZeroWaste believes unless the right people aren’t involved the task would only remain arduous and limited in its approach. Therefore the leaders of tomorrow have to be made part and inducted into the processes.

Aiming for an ongoing success ZeroWaste has partnered with leaders, appointed franchisees and collection centres which in due course of time would give the required impetus to the efforts.

Since it is running on professional lines a well thought out strategically laid out system has been put in place. A series of training sessions and workshops are being conducted to impart the necessary understanding, skills and zeal, turning the cause into a viable social entrepreneurial programme.

Continuous trainings and workshops are the fundamental steps meant to be hand holding exercises for the inductees to turn into change agents working independently and supporting the system in their own ways.

ZeroWaste today boasts of a growing list of collection centres and franchisees which have joined and not only benefitted from the programme but also have seen the economic viability of the social entrepreneurship.

The training programs are carried out at regular intervals who have enrolled themselves to be the social entrepreneurs. ZeroWaste encourages individual set ups and businesses to partner with it.
