Jalandhar is the largest city in the Doaba province of Punjab, India. Being the third most populous city in the state, the daily disposal of Municipal solid waste is not an easy task for the authorities involved. The study targets the type of waste produced, method of transportation, and final disposal technique used by the Municipal corporation of Jalandhar city. For this paper, official data has been collected, and the site has been visited in person to comment on the ground situation of the disposal grounds. The environmental, social, economic, and physio-chemical factors have been considered to evaluate the standards. The case study suggests an urgent need to change the method of disposal and scientifically design a waste management plan to achieve the norms laid by the national plans.
