Tremendous Growth in the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) sector has exponentially increased the usage of electronic goods and equipments all over the world. Although, subsequent up-gradation coupled with faster obsolescence of electronic products compel the user to discard them in a comparatively shorter time. This leads to piling of what is termed ‘e-waste or electronic waste’ into the waste stream. As per UN’s Global E-Waste Monitor 2020, in 2019, record 53.6 million metric tonnes (Mt) of electronic waste was generated worldwide, up 21% in just five years. In India the rate of growth has been estimated to be at 10% (Electronic Waste and India). But the issue does not only lie with the generation of e-waste. Lack of proper legislation, management and recycling are adding to the burden. This paper is an analytical research to understand the growing trend in e-waste along-with measures adopted globally as well as in India to control this menace.
