Vivek high School had a plastic waste collection drive under the ‘Swachh Amrit Mahotsav’ to raise awareness on the ban on single-use plastic. Students were
encouraged to bring plastic waste from home on 21st September.
The collected plastic was handed over to the representatives of the Municipal Corporation, Chandigarh for scientific disposal of the same. The motive behind the campaign is to educate students, parents and the community to avoid using plastic products due to its hazardous effects.
This initiative is directed towards accelerating efforts towards garbage free Chandigarh under the campaign ‘Plastic Mukt Chandigarh’ organised by the Municipal Corporation, Chandigarh.
