Dear Friends,

Rajasthan government has announced a complete ban on the use of plastic carry-bags all over the state from August 1. Entire state is declared "plastic carry-bag-free zone".

Violator of the order will get fiver years jail or a fine up to Rs. 1 Lakh or both.

It is a good step taken by Rajasthan Govt in order to protect environment.

Hopefully other state govts and central govt follow this.


What are your views on this?

With Thanks & Regards,
Kumaresh
