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.

It is quite in practicable to control the use of plastic by people.Best way is to ban manufacturing and heavy punishment to defaulters including minimum five years jail. Also use technology to decompose plastic.Recently an Indian scientist develop such technology using carbon nano tube. Try this. Ravi Pawaskar.

We can't impose ban on plastic products by enforcing strict masers. People should be explained to minimize the usage of plastic products gradually and for this the schools and college students may be used to educate the people the risks faced by using plastic bags, cups and plastic containers and disposing the same after their usage. Industries and Shops may be encouraged to use bags and containers made out of jute,paper and cloth for packing the materials by giving some incentives.

Dear Hon.PM Sir there should be an alternative to plastics,like Jute which are natural and are biodegradable,would be Great if we can encourage people to use more natural items this would also boost Jute Industries and their workers. Best Wishes. Neeraj

This is an area of concern, the more we promote on this that much is harm to ourselvels. We need to encourage alternatives, hand ovwen Jute products as by products. Unlike olden days this has to be encouraged with modern technology. Waste paper shall also be moulded as bags, and other modes of carrying materials will enhance value. Industries should stop using plastic, usging plastic in industries should be fined extra so as to curtail usage. Encourage industries on jute and other alternatives.

If plastic bags are harmful for the people, the ban on the plastic bags should be optional & any other alternative should be introduced & encouraged for the people instead of using plastic bags.
