Given India's rapidly expanding population, densely populated cities, varied cultural backgrounds, shifting dietary preferences, and changing lifestyles, municipal solid waste management (MSWM) has been an ongoing issue in recent years. As a result, towns have been dealing with a wide range of additional problems pertaining to the disposal, handling, and collection of solid waste. Improper management of municipal solid waste may lead to detrimental impacts on the environment, hazards to public health, and other socio-economic issues. With the goal of assisting researchers and the relevant authorities in creating more efficient plans, this paper provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of municipal solid waste management in India. This paper also examines the present scenario, major obstacles and future prospects of solid waste management in urban areas of India.
