At the time when the unfortunate
incident of the ‘accidental’ exposure to radiation that affected workers and
waste collectors in Delhi as they handled radioactive material, took place, the
issue of waste disposal, particularly hazardous waste, made
the headlines. The lives of those who live off collecting and sorting waste
came into out line of vision. But then the issue disappeared. Long term
policies that ensure that the safety and health of those who do such an
essential job – “a community of silent environmentalists” someone called them –
are not such a high priority any more. One reason is that the people affected
are virtually invisible.
Waste collectors around India work
silently, often late into the night, sorting out mountains of waste, foraging for
anything that can be sold. If you walk down some streets of Central Mumbai
after 11 at night, you will see an army of waste collectors. Men, women,
children are all hard at work. They work through the night and finally manage
to get some sleep on the doorsteps of the shops on those streets. By daylight
they become invisible, having stowed their belongings in boxes behind the signs
of the shops on whose doorsteps they sleep. These are the people of the night,
not noticed by those who inhabit the areas in the day.
What is often not entirely
appreciated is that a substantial percentage of waste collectors is women.
According to a study, 85 per cent of waste collectors in the city are women,
five per cent are children and 10 per cent are men. The majority of them are
poor and landless people who came to the city because of drought in their
villages. The age group ranges from 7 to 70 years and 98 per cent of them are illiterate.
A survey of 60,000 waste collectors found a similar proportion : 60 per cent
women, 20 per cent men and 20 per cent children. Studies have revealed that 90
per cent of the women waste pickers are primary bread-winners, often widowed or
deserted. It is interesting how the gender division of labour plays out even in
the business of waste. While women, and children, do the more hazardous job of
sorting and separating the waste, the men deal with the dry garbage, which they
transport to wholesalers and factories. As a result, it is the women who are
exposed to hazardous waste – none of them wear any kind of protective gear –
and also face the physical problems of constantly bending and carrying head
loads of the waste. Look at any group of waste collectors and you will spot the
bent old women who have been performing this function for decades.
In the slum-city of Mumbai, waste
collectors experience the most acute degree of homelessness. While poor people
in other kinds of jobs somehow manage to find some shelter in a slum,
irrespective of whether it is legal or illegal, waste collectors sleep next to
the garbage they have sorted. This is their “wealth”, something they have to
protect after they have collected and sorted it until they can monetize it.
Hence, near many garbage dumps, even in the better off localities of cities
like Mumbai, you see families of waste pickers asleep in the morning. And most
often you see only women and children.
Why bring up waste collectors at a
time when the main environmental issues being debated are the larger issues of
global warming, or environmental disasters such as the oil spill in the Gulf of
Mexico ? This is because one cannot speak of the environment withoutconsidering its
impact on the lives of people. We have hundreds of small-scale and continuing
environmental disasters taking place all around us. But we overlook them so
long as they do not impact our lives or our lifestyles. Millions of waste
pickers in India, who play a crucial role in dealing with the perennial environmental
crisis of waste, risk their lives and their health every single day. This is an
on-going environmental issue that requires as much attention from ordinary
people, the media and policy makers as the larger macro issues.
26.
Why are long term policies favouring waste collectors not high priority ?
(A)
The Govt is currently contemplating over the effects of the oil spill in the
Gulf of Mexico and does not have time for other issues.
(B)
The plight of these people is not evident as they work late into the night and
are not seen much during the day.
(C)
The Government is unable to see these people at all and thus is not aware of
their existence.
(D)
Waste collectors themselves are not in favour of being brought into organized
sector bcoz of the numerous complications involved.
(E)
As previous such favourable policies failed to improve conditions of these
waste collectors as they were not implemented effectively.
27.
Which of the following is true about waste collectors as given in the passage ?
1. Majority
of waste collectors are people who have migrated from their village because of
some natural calamity.
2.
Waste collectors prefer to sleep next to the garbage they have sorted. 3. Most
waste collectors are not literate.
(A)
Only (2) (B) Only (1) and (2) (C) Only (3) (D) Only (2) and (3) (E) All are
true.
28.
Why are women waste collectors at a disadvantage as compared to the men waste
collectors as mentioned in the passage ?
(A)
The men sell waste collected by the women to wholesalers & keep all the
money to themselves without sharing it with the women.
(B)
The women do the more dangerous and physical work of sorting through the
garbage whereas men mostly transport dry garbage.
(C)
Men wear protective gear while sorting the garbage thereby shielding themselves
from the ill effects of being exposed to the waste.
(D)
The men force their wives and children to work for them whereas the women do
not have this luxury.
(E)
The men are not as affected by the waste as the women waste collectors because
of the difference in their physical constitution.
29.
Which of the following is possibly the most appropriate title for the passage ?
(A)
The General Public’s Apathetic ways (B) The Unorganized Sector (C) The
Invisible Waste
(D)
Waste Collectors – The World Over (E) Recognizing the ‘Work’ in ‘Dirty Work’
30.
Why, according to the author, is the issue of waste collectors as important as
the issue of global warming ?
1.
As most waste collectors in big cities are children who are ultimately the
future of our nation.
2.
As without the waste collectors sorting waste the phenomenon of global warming
would increase exponentially.
3.
As waste collectors deal with wastage which impacts the people’s everyday lives
and is also environmentally significant.
