Trade saris for cloth bags in Vadakara
The HinduAs the ban on single-use plastic is being imposed across the country, one difficulty faced by common people is to replace the polythene carry bags they have been using so far with eco-friendly material, preferably cloth. Even though a variety of cloth bags, in all price ranges, are available, people are reluctant to buy them, especially since they are quite used to polythene bags available free of cost. The Municipality recently launched a scheme ‘Sari tharoo sanchi tharam’, in which, the public can exchange their old saris for new cloth bags. The scheme is being carried out by the Hariyali Haritha Karma Sena of the Municipality, that converts the old saris into cloth bags at their ‘Green Shop’ and redistributes it. The Green Shop creates cloth bags in various shapes and sizes using these saris.
