Environmental Protection and Zero-Waste Campaign

In a historic eco-friendly initiative, the Mela Administration has banned single-use plastics across all food stalls, commercial vendors, and camp sectors.

Sustainable Initiatives

  • Biodegradable Utensils: Food stalls must use leaf plates (Pattal) and clay cups (Kulhad).
  • Cloth Bag Distribution: Over 500,000 reusable cloth bags distributed at entry satellite stations.
  • Continuous Waste Segregation: Wet and dry waste bins installed every 50 meters along pedestrian corridors.
