The awareness towards environment and hygiene is making mankind concerned to look into all kinds of entities encountering in technology development and desire of mankind. Recent upsurge of technology and development in electronic industry has lead to many advancement and ease in lifestyle in automating life but has posed equally challenges for human kind also. The development of EEE products calls for metals and synthetic materials which are often termed as manmade materials. Once the EEE products lose their life and become waste its disposal is turning to be a challenging task these days. The developed nations are pushing their old obsolete materials to underdeveloped and developing countries in name of technology transfer and this product disposal liability ultimately comes to these lesser known technology possessing nations. The crude disposal takes place giving rise to depletion of materials for further production of EEE at one end and worst part of disposal is seen in case of organic/manmade materials which are toxic deadly in nature and cause irreparable damage to environment and living being affected by it. Situation of such disposal in Bihar cities show similar results as can be witnessed in any part of India and sometimes matches to situation of worst affected sites available in world. The study further reveals that the preposition of degradation goes demographic preposition, industrialization extent, non strictness and absence of regulatory & monitoring enforcement mechanisms. Banned substances continued use in product manufacturing must be stopped paving way for use of environment friendly constituents, permitted components and safe technology for safe products. Available options of buy back, extended producers responsibility must be extensively exercised and disposal is done in safe, highly technical manner in controlled, sustained and environment friendly manner.
