This leads to generation of E Waste on a massive scale. In the technical era, every day companies are finding new electronic items and accordingly satisfy consumer needs. Consumers also express their interest in buying the electronic goods immediately after the electronic goods are introduced in the market. To examine the various ways to solve E-Waste problems. To assess the impact of E-Waste management to the local communities. The ‘t’ test is used to find out the significant difference among the two group of samples regarding any intention variable which is internal scale.

The aspects of harmful E-Waste for the environment, reasons of increasing E-Waste, Useful method of Disposal of E-Waste, ways to solve E-Waste problems and impact of E-Waste management to the local communities have been measured with the help of the variables drawn from previous studies.
