Welcome move by the Sivakasi Municipality

Once again, Sivakasi Municipality enforced a major eco-friendly move by banning the use of polythene carry bags in Sivakasi Town. The move to ban polythene carry bags was because they were found to be a major cause for blockage in drainage and water channels in the town. As polythene carry bags get dumped everywhere, the Sivakasi drainage system is getting affected and it is leading to mosquito breeding and also the soil loses fertility.

For last four days, at early morning, near Kadai Kovil, Sivakasi Municipality Officials distributing one Manja Pai for free, for those who carry plastic bags for shopping and they educate consumers about the dangers of using plastic products. Sivakasi Municipality is merely raising the awareness of Sivakasi consumers to change their habits and to stop using non-biodegradable plastic bags. Distributing manja pai for free of cost is a welcome move by the Sivakasi Municipality, to reduce plastic bags usage in the town.
