In developing scenario of India, the concept of smart cities is playing a crucial role. The solid waste management is necessary not only in maintaining the hygienic environment but in reducing the probable health hazards. The current study deals in obtaining weightage of chief ingredient of solid waste management viz. chief criteria like waste collection, transportation, disposal, energy recovery etc. along with their respective sub criteria. Putting these weightage to reference, the data obtained in the survey study from Indore, Jabalpur and Nagpur city will be compared. This study will provide vital results to identify achievements as well as the lacuna in the solid waste management process of the respective cities.
