Circular Economy Cell

Circular Economy Cell (CE Cell) was constituted in NITI Aayog in September, 2022 as a dedicated unit to work in the area of Circular Economy. 10 sectoral Circular Economy action plans were finalized in NITI Aayog for implementation by stakeholder Ministries/Departments. The primary activities encompass coordinating among stakeholder Ministries/Departments in implementing the Circular Economy action plans. Among other initiatives, CE Cell worked in coordination with MoRTH to operationalize the Vehicle Scrapping programme and developing a strategy for scrapping the fleet of unfit and old Central & State Government Vehicles. The envisioned activities for the upcoming financial year comprise preparation of a comprehensive Mission Document for Circular Economy, development of an interactive Dashboard elaborating the progress in different domains of Circular Economy and furthering engagement with States.
