Between January 2014 and May 2015, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) received 18 complaints about mishandling of waste.
According to the health ministry, the amount of bio-medical waste generation in the country during 2011, 2012 and 2013 was recorded as 4,15,429 kg/day, 4,16,824 kg/day and 4,84,271 kg/day respectively.
