Pune, February 5, 2025: Residents of Element 5 Co-Operative Housing Society in Rahatni marked Republic Day with more than just flag hoisting this year. On January 26, 2025, the society pledged to eliminate electronic waste from their surroundings, launching an E-Waste Collection Drive that concluded on February 2, 2025.

The initiative, spearheaded by CA Neha Maloo and six-year-old Naman Damani, garnered enthusiastic participation from residents of Element 5 and neighboring societies near Shivar Chowk, Pimple Saudagar. Understanding the environmental hazards of improper e-waste disposal, residents contributed unused electronic items, including TVs, laptops, mobile phones, routers, Diwali lights, chargers, and more, for safe recycling.

The campaign was supported by Muskmelon Envtech Pvt. Ltd., an authorized e-waste management firm, which ensured the collected waste was handled responsibly.

Commenting on the initiative, CA Neha Maloo highlighted the importance of community-driven environmental efforts. “It is crucial to raise awareness about proper e-waste disposal. Through this campaign, we encouraged residents to take small but impactful steps towards environmental sustainability,” she said.
