The government has initiated to lower the production of e-waste in India. Therefore, they have introduced PRO (Producers Responsibility Organization).
The role of PRO is to assist the producers and meet their legal obligation in achieving the collection E-waste targets, establishing the collection centers of E-waste, and conducting the awareness programmers related to the collection of E-waste. Agreements have been signed between the PRO and the producers or with a consortium of producers; these agreements outline the role and responsibility of the PRO for the management of EPR.

Seelampur is one of the largest e-waste markets; nearly more than 50,000 people live out of Seelampur's E-waste.
