India's garbage can become Rs 5-lakh-crore business, I earn Rs 300 crore annually by selling treated toilet water: Nitin Gadkari
Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari said on Monday that India's municipal solid and liquid waste holds the potential to become a Rs 5-lakh-crore business if converted into useful products. Speaking at the Times of India Social Impact Summit in Mumbai, he said the country can generate employment, promote clean energy, and improve sustainability through a waste-to-wealth model. Waste-to-wealth can drive jobs and sustainability Gadkari gave a personal example from his own constituency to illustrate the opportunity. 'For the past nine years, I have been selling treated toilet water from my constituency, earning ₹300 crore annually,' he said. He also cited a waste treatment project in Mathura. 'The particulates are treated with organic culture, and the extracted sludge is converted into bio-flocculants,' he explained. He said the treated sewage, which once flowed into the Yamuna, is now used by an Indian Oil refinery .
