Srinagar Launches Anti-Polythene Drive To Curb Pollution
The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) has joined the anti-polythene drive, and started their campaign from world famous Dal Lake by collecting polythene bags from the lake.
"We have taken this initiative to clean the area surrounding Nehru Park and Dal Lake and other places so as to clean the environment," said Sunil Kumar, a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel.
Raw sewage, land encroachment and years of neglect have been threatening the survival of the Dal Lake where visitors from across the world once enjoyed the idyllic stillness of fresh waters surrounded by cedar-laden Himalayan mountains.
The initiative is much appreciated by the locals, who say that such drive is a must.
"The effort they (CRPF) have taken is well appreciated and polythene is a menace, which should be banned all over the world," said Shabir Ahmad, a shopkeeper.
Mohammad Sadiq Bakal, President, Traders And Manufacturers Federation, said that they would ban the second grade polythene bags, as they are more hazardous.
