Taking serious note of the latest decision of the National Green Tribunal (NGT), the Chandigarh Administration has speed up the enforcement of ban imposed on the use of polythene carry bags/plastic bags/plates/cups and other allied material in Union Territory of Chandigarh. As per NGT directions there is also provision of imposing fine of Rs.5, 000/- "Environmental Compensation" to the erring person/entity per event, along with seizure of such stocks.

With the help of this discussion platform the Administration requests you to 'report the violations' (attach pictures or other details) regarding use of plastic carry bag/plate/cup and allied items on ww.mygov.in. Also, we would like to read your suggestions/ideas as well as practical/workable solutions for complete imposition of plastic (carry bag/cup/plate and allied items) ban in Chandigarh.

#Ban #PlasticCovers - First step would be asking whole industries - mainly Food and Beverages, packing,pharma- not use plastic wrapper covers, plastic bottles, which form 80% of plastic usage. Next is increasing recyclable materials.

Most of the plastic problems is due to the packaging done by most to the corporate companies. Because once the product is used we all uses it as a garbage bags. If the rule is made for the corporate to make unfriendly packets then lot of this problems can be solved.

I would like to say that our Govt must provide the type of dustbins like: For Plastic,For Metal, For Food waste etc and scould order to the people to put it on the same bin and if found by throwing anywhere will be penalty. then I think we can keep our city clean n green.

I wish ban of plastic all over India and encouraging use of bags made of cotton,jute or other biodegradable thing. Only recyclable plastic should be produced and cost of the plastic should be increased by high taxation. It will be difficult for people initially but soon people will learn to leave with it.

1.citizens should do their duty of STOPPING THE USE OF PLASTIC AND POLYTHENE.2.ALSO THEIR PRODUCTION SHOULD BE BANNED.3.NOT ONLY THAT THE PACKING OF ANY PROVISIONAL ITEM SHOULD BE MADE IN ECO FRIENDLY MANNER (MOONG DALS, CHIPS CHOCOLATES ETC.).4.COLLECTION OF GARBAGE SHOULD AND MUST FOLLOW THE PROCESS OF SEPARATION OF BIO DEGRADABLE AND NON BIO DEGRADABLE WASTES.5. CITIZENS SHOULD DISPOSE OFF THE WASTES AFTER SEPARATING IN THE MANNER 4.

As our Government cant ban any production company directly,they should increase the tax for plastic companies & its sellers and also tie a rules like minimum 40 micron production will be allowed otherwise the company will liable to pay a fine of 10-20 crores. it will be profitable for Rising India fund or Make in India fund or some other way of helping our citizen of India. There are too many food product companies who used plastics for packing. so we can just try to use only recyclable plastic

Place a non bailable imprisonment for those who PRODUCE POLYTHENE BAGS Only fear of jail can stop this practice Once production is stopped than automatically people themselves will find the alternative

Best option will be ban on the production of plastic bags but it can be done by providing its alternative. Government should give subsidy on jute and other biodegradable carry bags.

"BAN ON THE PRODUCTION OF PLASTIC" means stop further production of plastic and recycle the plastic which we have already made. recycle of plastic is must therefore use of plastic can be done simulateously deacrese in the pollution..
