Award for e-waste recycler

 The Union Minister for Finance Pranab Mukherjee honoured Parthsarathy by presenting him a memento.

rural poor. 

Parthasarathy is the Managing Director, e-Parisaraa, Pvt Ltd at Dobaspet in Bangalore. He introduced the indigenous process for the first time in India which has not only helped conservation of natural resources like mineral wealth, water, energy, but also to generate employment to the rural poor, especially women.
