  • Only 8 of 35 states process more than 50% of daily garbage generated in their cities.
  • The top state with best waste management is Chhattisgarh (1,680 mT generated, 74% processed), followed by Telangana (7,371-mT generated, 67% processed).
  • Jharkhand 4th from bottom (2,327-mT generated, 2% processed).
