The quality of air in the surroundings of the cities is so poor that it is estimated about two million children under five die each year fromrespiratory infections Falling in linewith the general situation,we find certain public places like hospitals, vegetable, fish and other market places, Railway stations, Bus stands, Parks and Cinema halls aremaintained unhygienicallycontributing to the spread of infectious diseases. It is wonder how the elite like doctors and higher officials who work in such public places and spendmajor part of their day time in these places are callous to the environment. Particularly, hospitals generate an enormous amount of dangerous waste. The amount of solid waste generated by hospitals has been increasing rapidly in developing countries like India and its management can no longer be ignored. Increasing concern for community health standards and pollution control requirements demand that the hugemass of infectious waste be rendered as harmless as possible before it is disposed.Against this background, an attempt is made in this paper to discuss the problem of disposal of wastes in Indian hospitals and various legislations relating to environmental protection in general andBio-medical waste (Management and Handling) rules,1998 (amended in 2000) based on the environmental (protection)Act, 1986 in particular. This Paper also suggests a few measures for the effectivemanagement of waste disposal.
