The first solid waste processing site to convert organic waste into compost in the East Indian State of Bihar has been inaugurated in Muzaffarpur under programme jointly managed by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE).
According to the CSE, Muzaffarpur is emerging as a shining example of a clean city for other urban centres in Bihar. The Swachhata Swasthya Samridhi programme, launched in the city in December 2016 by the Muzaffarpur Municipal Corporation (MMC) in association with CSE and ITC Ltd, has focused on making the city a model in solid waste management.
