Abstract

This study delves into the practices of Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) in Udaipur city, Rajasthan. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research integrates waste audits, surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions to comprehensively evaluate the current waste management landscape. The results emphasize the necessity for tailored strategies that account for the distinct challenges associated with waste generation in Udaipur. By focusing on quantitative analysis, the study sheds light on the hurdles confronting municipal solid waste management in Udaipur City. The swift urbanization and population surge in Udaipur have amplified solid waste generation, placing considerable strains on the city's waste management infrastructure. Through surveys, data gathering, and statistical scrutiny, this investigation aims to pinpoint critical challenges, including inadequate waste collection infrastructure, improper segregation practices, limited landfill capacity, and insufficient public awareness. These insights offer valuable guidance for policymakers, urban planners, and stakeholders to devise effective strategies and interventions aimed at enhancing MSWM in Udaipur City and similar urban environments.
