Recycling is an area where jobs could be created at low cost

Municipal corporation Chhindwara came into being as Corporation on 05-Sep-2014. It has total 48 wards and total area 11072.231 hectares. Its total population is 2,15,843. Since beginning Chhindwara has been a clean and planned city. It has lot of Green belt and many tourist places like Dharamtekdi, Bhartadev, Karaboh dam and Badal BhoiAdiwasi etc.

Fusion Waste Management and Consultancy Pvt. Ltd. Has been associated with Chhindwara Municipal Corporation (CMC) in February 2021 for Providing Technical Assistance for Solid Waste Management and Carrying out IEC Activities. We are doing IEC/BCC activities for CMC targeting each and every resident of Chhindwara for awareness creation, sensitization and behaviour change. We are also providing technical support for Swachh Bharat Mission and committed to improve rank of Chhindwara in Swachh Survekshan 2022.

Waste does not exist in nature because ecosystems reuse everything that grows in a never-ending cycle of efficiency and purpose.

We have extended our constant support to CMC for achieving 100% door to door collection of waste. In a record time of nine months CMC was able to achieve 100% segregated collection of waste with the help of 55 Partitioned Tippers with no household left. This waste is being transported to transfer station in the segregated form through partitioned tippers. Tracking and Monitoring of collection and transportation is being done through Vehicle Tracking and Monitoring System with our support. We are also supporting CMC in processing of waste by providing technical support, enhancing technical know-how, updating technology used, arranging technical sessions for safety of workforce etc.

HomeComposting is a great way to recycle the organic waste we generate at home. It can take some of our leftovers, waste and unwanted extras and turn them into fertile soil to boost the productivity of gardens and landscapes. Our IEC team led the movement to aware more and more people about home composting. Under this movement a dedicated team visits door to door and educate people to make compost using wet waste such as peels of vegetable and fruits, unused food, leaves etc. Various methods of home composting viz. Matka Composting, Composting using a specially designed compost bin, community composting etc. were taught to the residents of Chhindwara. Team had got a good response towards home composting from the residents. “A society is defined not only by what it creates, but by what it refuses to destroy.”

Bartan and Thaila Banks were established at almost 20 places at in Chhindwara. People can take utensils on rent on nominal rates from these Bartan Bank for functions/ceremonies/other occasioned and can help in reducing load of disposable plastics on environment. They can also purchase Thaila from thaila bank and can stop using SUP/Plastic bags. These banks have made tremendous efforts in reducing quantum of waste generated. We in association of CMC is working towards involving SHGs in this project to provide them livelihood opportunities. “Recycling old buildings to show art is very important.”

We have suggested to establish about 20 Neki Ki Deewar at Chhindwara, in turn CMC has established these at 20 locations in the city. These are helpful in getting cloths, utensils, food, shoes etc. to needy. Ultimate aim is to reduce production of waste, actually which is not waste but resource for others. “A society is defined not only by what it creates, but by what it refuses to destroy.”

On the occasion of completion of 74 Years of India’s Independence, 75th Year is being celebrated as Azaadi Ka Amrti Mahotsav (AKAM). Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs is also celebrating this year as AKAM. Therefore, it has directed every city to designate one circle (chauraha) as AKAM chauraha. In line with AKAM, Imlikheda Chowk (Ward No.- 35) has been designated as Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav Circle (AKAM Chauraha) by Chhindwara Municipal Corporation. We have ideated and designed a detailed plan for AKAM Chauraha on the principle of 3R and conveyed it to CMC. This initiative has transformed Imlikheda circle in a panoramic circle, that has improved the beauty of the city many folds. A hollow sphere was designed with Iron rods having AKAM Logo on one side and Swachh Chhindwara Sunder Chhindwara Logo on other. This sphere is placed on Imlikheda Chowk and fitted with an electric motor that will revolve this sphere.Multicolour lights were also installed at the periphery of this circle. Revolution of sphere and reflection of lights on it, turns this Circle (Chauraha) into a panoramic view, that attracts attention of visitors. “Recycling old buildings to show art is very important.”

We have ideated and advocated to CMC for dedicating a tiraha/chauraha (circle) to our real heros and foundation of maintaining cleanliness, sanitation and hygiene. Their lives are equally important as ours, therefore, on note of Safaimitra Suraksha Challenge A Tiraha was dedicated to safamitras for their unending contribution and to create awareness about protection of their lives. “A society is defined not only by what it creates, but by what it refuses to destroy.”

Paintings for spreading awareness about Safai Mitra Suraksha and its helpline number 14420, Swachh Survekshan 2022, Behaviour Change Communication and Beautification were made on walls in different wards and public space. Our team extends constant support to CMC for Beatification of city. Decorative fencing/ wire mesh has also been constructed/fixed over the bridges of water bodies to prevent littering and gaining attraction/attention of passer-by to motivate them to not to litter at such a beautiful place.
