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.

हमें पॉली बैग्स की जगह BIO DEGRADABLE बैग्स प्रयोग में लेने चाहिए , जो की प्रकृति में गाल जाते ह, और जो प्रणाली अभी चल रही है कि, अगर कोई दूकानदार पॉलिथीन बैग्स रखता हा तो उस जुर्माना लगता है, इसमें थोडा बदलाव करने की जरूरत है, जुर्माना दूकानदार पर भी और जो ग्राहक प्रयोग करता ह उस पर भी लगना चाहिए।

Plastic bags should be replaced by reusable cloth bags and not paper bags. Paper bags are also harmful as paper is got by cutting down trees.

Strictly cloth bags should be used. Our grand and great grandparents used cloth bags. Hence they were healthier than the present generation as they lived in good environment. Shop should give a discount of Rs. 2/- per customer if he/she brings a cloth bag to carry the purchased items. This incentive will make plastic bags disappear. Also educational programs should be conducted in schools & colleges regarding the harm caused by plastic bags on our environment. Paper bags result in cutting trees.

Imposing a ban on plastic carry bags & cups is a welcome move. The very first step should be to impose a ban on manufacturing of plastic carry bags & cups & provide direct & indirect incentives on manufacturing of paper & cloth bags. Rest will fall in place automatically

Implementation of cloth bag rather than plastic bags may be useful.BIG Bazaar has already started from the root level..but it should be strictly advised to all shopkeepers to keep the cloth bag.

To ban plastic bags all shop keepers must come forward to help.They must display a board that plastic carry bags will not be given in their shops.All big shopping malls must co operate in this effort.Likewise citizens also extend their support by carrying cloth bags with them.Its a joint effort.
