Congratulating the initiative, V.K. Chaurasia, Joint Advisor, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, said the deployment of the technology in the society through the various civic administration agencies across the nation will resolve the huge challenge associated with eradication of manual scavenging' from India. Chaurasia said the adoption of the technology across the nation will help create regional manufacturing hubs', which will consequently help drastically improve the employment scenario and economic prospects across the nation. Besides, the CSIR-CMERI Municipal Solid Waste Management Technology also holds the potential to be the game-changer' in the domain of waste management and help realise the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi of a zero-landfill India'. --IANS jw/arm ( 234 Words) 2021-12-28-22:38:03 (IANS)
