What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will promote recycling programmes across the country. We will institutionalise recycling mandates across sectors to maximise mineral recovery from used products.”
Our Assessment
A circular-economy framework is being institutionalised through Extended Producer Responsibility rules across waste streams (plastics, e-waste, batteries, tyres, used oil, end-of-life vehicles), the Battery Waste Management Rules (supporting recovery of critical minerals from used batteries) and the National Critical Mineral Mission’s recycling component. Recycling mandates are expanding sector by sector, with implementation maturing. Partial.
