Status of E-waste management in Delhi/Sirajuddin Ahmed, Mohammed Shakeel and Rashmi Makkar Panwar. .Solid Waste Management (SWM) is a multidimensional and challenging task. Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) has assumed alarming proportions. Public agencies are not dealing effectively with its growing magnitude. These cannot be exclusively held responsible for this. With increased economic growth the problems associated with SWM are bound to become more complex. We have to generate reliable information and awareness about negative effects of solid waste on health and environment. Debates on economy environment linkages have sidetracked these aspects. There is thus need for an informed understanding of the underlying issues. Against this backdrop the present book attempts to weave together central issues in their proper perspective. (jacket).

India is committed to making a tangible contribution to the global efforts to reduce trade off between the existing pattern of growth and the quality of environment. Our constitution imparts seminal importance to a clean environment. A number of acts has been enacted and policies have been formulated in response to these constitutional mandates. Institutional structures have been put in place. Budgetary allocation has registered a marked increase. Civil society's involvement in protecting the quality of environment has also grown exponentially over the years. Courts have pronounced some landmark judgements as a result of public interest litigations. Green movements have also become more organized and broad based. All these developments have indeed raised the level of awareness about the gravity of the situation and yielded positive results. Be that as it may the present state of environmental health in our country is far from satisfactory. The existing legal cum policy framework has proved to be exceedingly inadequate and in many cases ineffective. Against this background the National Environmental Policy 2006 (NEP) assumes historical significance. It attempts to highlight the challenges posed by the degradation of the quality of environment at all levels and proposes policy frameworks and guidelines. Regardless of its novel and encouraging features the NEP has several weaknesses. Despite these it can still yield dividends provided effective and appropriate implementation mechanis.

India has emerged over the last 20 years as the most preferred destination for outsourcing of Information Technology (IT) services. The vibrant IT industry is contributing immensely by providing information about latest technology and international business practices. Various sectors of the Indian economy such as industry finance insurance communications and transport have adopted IT in a big way. Trade in IT and IT Enabled services has been the main driver of growth in India's trade in services in recent years. Starting out with basic data entry tasks the industry has rapidly acquired a reputation as the primary low cost destination for voice based customer contact/support services finance and accounting and a range of back office processing activities. The past few years have seen the scope of these services expanding to include increasingly more complex processes involving rule based decision making and research/analytics services requiring informed individual judgement and domain/vertical knowledge. Indian companies adopt all the modes for supply of IT services abroad. The larger companies have set up wholly owned subsidiaries in USA UK and the European continent or have opened branches to facilitate the supply of services. Some of them have adopted the strategy of acquiring local companies or entering into strategic partnerships with them. They use the quality processes innovative technologies and delivery models of acquired companies to penetrate the local market. They have permanent employees or hire consultants based in the host country. However there are certain areas of concern which need to be given the desired policy attention and weightage. Some of these are (a) sustainability of high growth rate of software exports in future (b) shortage of skilled labour (c) low diffusion of information technology in the domestic market (d) lagging hardware sector (e) regional concentration and (f) excessive dependence on USA. Hence there is a need for recasting of approach to the growth of IT sector. Dispassionate debate/discussion on the various aspects of Indian IT sector is a necessary requirement for such a rethink. It is against this backdrop that the present volume seeks to provide answers to some of the key issues and questions. 340 pp.
