IFP Editorial: As there are no other viable alternatives, vendors and shopkeepers have started using single-use plastic bags, although they always keep a lookout for the police or other enforcers of the ban. Why is it so? The state did not have a sound and practical strategy for implementing the plastic ban.
The awareness campaign was carried out in line with the Manipur Plastic Policy, 2022 for effective management of plastic waste and complete elimination of single-use plastics in the state.
IFP EDITORIAL: The Manipur government must agree that it did not have a plan before implementing the plastic ban.
The demand is so high that the prices of plastic bags per kilogram have increased. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the prices of single use plastic bags per kilogram ranged from Rs 90 to Rs 100. Now, the prices have increased to Rs 140-150 per kilogram.
