Decoupling: Economic Development & Environmental Pressure• NO2, PM10 and O3 emission are in transition between negative andrelative decoupling.
• Negative decoupling is observed in terms of SO2 and CO emission

Decoupling: Economic Development & Environmental Pressure• Generation of CSW showed transition between relative andabsolute decoupling.
• ISW generation is relatively decoupled.
• Surface water quality (in terms of BOD, COD and SS) showednegative decoupling.
• MSW generation is negatively decoupled.
