Hey there !
The ban on plastic bags has proved a dud in the city. Though the use and sale of plastic bags with thickness less than 50 mircons is officially banned in city limits, these are openly used by fruit and vegetable vendors, food joint owners and meat sellers.
Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) officials who are supposed to oversee the implementation of the ban say they neither have infrastructure nor powers to make the ban a reality. They say they are “doing what they can do” but for making the ban a success they need help and cooperation of other government departments. According to them, illegal manufacturing of low-quality plastic bags in and around the city needs to be controlled first — the powers to do which are with the Pollution Control Board.
Hope it helps you !

Polythene is a gift of science that serves us in our day to day life.BUT now a day excessive use of polythene or polybags has become a real threat to our environment. Due to it’s non-porous and non-biodegradable nature polybags harm us a lot in many ways. Polybags also contain toxic chemicals. Thus, they choke the soil and suffocate the roots of plants. During the rainy season, it may block the drains and that cause artificial flood. Thus the time has arrived to Say no to Polybags.
