GVMC’s Ban on Single-Use Plastic Loses Momentum in Visakhapatnam

GVMC implemented a ban on single-use plastic in 2022, but recent months have seen a decline in compliance with the ban. Single-use plastic bags have made a comeback in shops, despite earlier efforts to encourage the use of cloth or jute bags. The GVMC had designated tourist spots as plastic-free zones and successfully enforced the ban during a temple festival. However, the resurgence of plastic bags is concerning, and stakeholders are urged to recommit to a plastic-free environment.
