Answer:
MUMBAI: Contrary to what its political leadership has been widely propagating, the BMC has merely recommended to the state environment department a penalty on citizens found using plastic carrybags below 50 microns.
The BMC's proposal, which is being scrutinised by its legal cell before being forwarded to the Maharashtra government, suggests a fine of Rs 5 to Rs 10 on anyone found carrying material in bags that of less than 50 microns thickness. For this purpose, the civic body has asked the state to make necessary changes to the Maharashtra Non-Biodegradable Garbage (Control) Ordinance, 2006.
