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.

Polythene and all kind of plastic is recyclable. NGT has given directions of banning plastic crockery as well as allied items. Plastic is a part of our life. We start our day from plastic milk pouch and sleep in a polyfill quilt besides using plastic items whole day, including laptop and mobile too. I suggest strong will power of General public to dispose Plastic seprately.Jute production cannot meet requirements, cloth is not available for all even to wear and paper use will burden environment

Recently been to Ooty where there is a plastic ban already. No reason not to do it for whole country. There are alternatives available, we should ban it throughout the country. Even today shops are giving plastic covers by charging extra. My point is if you are charging extra anyways why not give a paper or jute or other alternative bag?

What I know is that, there may be trillions of plastic bags, there may be billions of plastic bag users, there may be millions of plastic bag sellers, there may be thousands of plastic bags distributors, there may be hundreds of plastic bags manufacturer, but there is one government who can stop the manufacturing in one month maximum time as without them one can not produce a needle so tell the responsible officers to stay their work rather then going around the world to stop pathic bag user.

Government should ban plastic carry bags. Only handwoven jute or cotton handloom carry bags made in India only should be allowed across the country. This one small change will significantly reduce environment degradation. At the same time it will give livelihood to millions of villagers as an entire industry will develop.
