The ban is required. Otherwise, it will be difficult to manage. Also there has to be strict enforcement of segregation at source. Recycled plastic should be used for laying roads etc. more

Govt machinery should be easily accessible to hear public grievience ans educate and resolve grievience. more

Plastic ban is a hasty decision. Please have to be given an alternative. Govt should have flooded with reasonably priced cloth, paper or jute bags. Plastic manufacturers and traders should be given the responsibility of collecting to the bags and even employ rag-pickers to do it. All good ideas have to be implemented through good methods, otherwise they become curse, and the people suffer. more
