ABOUT SAAHAS

Saahas was registered under the Society’s Act in 2001. We are based in Bangalore and committed to finding solutions to problems related to solid waste.
Our organisation has studied the Municipal Solid Waste (Management and Handling Rules) 2000 and we believe that it provides excellent guidelines for improving the existing situation of solid waste management in the city.
