Plastic usage banned by January 2011 in Madurai - Green Madurai

It is noted that plastic usage in Madurai is banned by January 1st 2011 by the previous Madurai Collector Mr.Kamaraj IAS. It is said the carry bags, storage items production and the usage is not to be done in any manner. Due to the bio-non-degradable nature of Plastics, it is said that

Instead only paper or leave products has to be used for carrying, food storage, serving etc., not plastic.

Though the rule or law is created and effective January 2011 it has to start. However with the elections and Government busy taking over etc., this is not taken care yet.

Even the awareness is not created among the people and also sufficient controlling measures by police or officials are not done yet in Madurai.

Respected Madurai Collector or Commissioner, can we know when this will be taken care? We, New Madurai Foundation, request you to do the needful. You will know better, but this is probably just a reminder or request!

Thanking you Sir's!
