In recent years, India has experienced rapid economic growth and urbanization, leading to an increase in the amount of waste produced. According to a report by the Central Pollution Control Board, India generates about 62 million tonnes of waste annually, out of which only 43 million tonnes is collected and treated. The rest ends up in landfills or in the environment, leading to pollution and health hazards. In this scenario, startups like Kabadiwaale are playing a crucial role in creating a more sustainable future for India.
Kabadiwaale, founded by Anil Prajapati and Abhilesh Prajapati, is a resident of Satna, Madhya Pradesh.

Their platform enables people to sell their scrap online and get paid for it, while at the same time reducing environmental waste.
