along with the population of "1.324 billion", India has become the 2nd biggest country in the globe, after China, that is becoming important for industrialization and urban growth. Because India has now introduced as growing market, persons from the towns have begun to migrate to towns, which produce the big quantity of waste material daily. from one to four percent of all the solid wastes are produced by plastic residues, the majority of which are made by household, manufacturing, grocery bags and plastic bottles of water. In addition, in some Indian states there is a desert region that produces pollution from the plastic things which seaside recreation. the material which is completely wasted, is gathered from outside villagers and cities inappropriately creating unpleasant as well as disorganized situations who mostly affect the people's health who are living surrounding them, but also lead to ruin management issues, leads to massive environmental impacts which contribute to the groundwater pollution. The analysis focuses on the improvement of minimizing the plastic waste and indeed the present crisis in our nation.
