The Government of Gujarat has constituted a Nodal Agency, Gujarat Urban Development Company Ltd

All the municipal authorities are required to arrange for collection, segregation, transportation andsuitable disposal of municipal wastes from the municipal towns/cities according to the MSW (M & H)Rules 2000

The Government of Gujarat has constituted a Nodal Agency, Gujarat Urban Development Company Ltd(GUDC) for the development of infrastructure for treatment, transportation and disposal

As of now, there are 159 Nagarpalikas, 8 Municipal Corporations, 4 Notified Areas and 1 Urban DevelopmentAuthority in the State of Gujarat

Initiatives

The concept of common secured landfills is adopted for the treatment and disposal of the Municipal SolidWaste generated in the towns and cities

The GUDC has divided Gujarat into four different regions and identified 28 clusters for Regional Landfill sitefor different local bodies located in Gujarat

GUDC has constructed 93 vermi compost plants out of that 86 vermi compost plants are in operation and 7vermi compost plants are under construction/ at commissioning stage
