As per official estimates, the annual average waste collection efficiency in the city is 83 per cent, meaning this much MSW is collected and transported to landfills. But the study has found


that the collection efficiency differs from locality to locality and is linked with economic status. It is 67 per cent in poor localities, while it is up to 99 per cent in higher income


areas. The difference is due to better waste management infrastructure including door-to-door waste collection, waste collection centres and municipal street sweepers in higher income


colonies. On the other hand, poor localities only depend on municipal street sweepers and trucks for collecting the waste and, there is no door-to-door waste collection.
