reduce import cost, generate incremental GST

revenue and help to solve the global shortage

of semi conductor chip. The said policy

provides an important link in creating circular

economy (waste to wealth) for the country.

Initially, there should be atleast one RVSF

centre to be set up at State level.

The Government of Goa considers that

guidelines for disposal of the vehicles should

be formulated to offer an authorized place to

the registered owners of End-of-Life Vehicles

(ELV), to get their vehicles scrapped. Such

scrapping

guidelines

and

scrapping

procedure will help in ensuring that the

vehicles, so scrapped, do not cause damage

to environment and there should be a proper

disposal of hazardous components of the

scraped vehicles.

In current global scenario, environmental

pollution is considered to be the most

alarming issue causing climate change,

threatening lives of many species. The rising

population of vehicles, especially the old

vehicles plying on the roads are raising the

pollution level. Unlike developed countries,

current setup for vehicle recycling in India is

extremely unorganized and majority of the

vehicles are being routed through the

informal sector which does not follow any

Legal/Environmental or Ethical norms. The

non-scientific manner of recycling causes low

material recovery, environmental damage by

way of water/air/soil pollution and unsafe

working conditions for workers. Current

unorganized system also lacks the visibility

and transparency in the process for owners

and the government.

In this backdrop, the Ministry of Road

Transport and Highways (MoRTH) notified the
