Q1. Based on the above passage, the following assumptions have been made:
1. Collection, processing and segregation of municipal waste should be with government agencies.
2. Resource recovery and recycling require technological inputs that can be best handled by private sector enterprises. Which of the assumptions given above is/are correct?
Detailed Solution
The passage describes the current state of waste management in India, highlighting issues like rare source segregation and budget allocation for collection and transportation. It discusses the ideal placement of waste-to-energy in the process and mentions biomethanation as a solution.
However, the passage does not make any assertions or assumptions about whether government agencies or private sector enterprises should be responsible for collection, processing, segregation, or technological inputs. It focuses on the 'what' and 'how' of waste management, not the 'who'.
Therefore, neither statement 1 nor statement 2 can be assumed from the text provided. This question tests the ability to strictly adhere to the information given in the passage.
