Total plastic ban in Tirumala from Wednesday’ thorough check at Alipiri #IndiaNEWS #Andhra Pradesh
Hyderabad: The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) banned all types of plastic in Tirumala, with effect from Wednesday (June 1). The move comes as part of the trust board’s eco-friendly drive to protect the environment and greenery on the hill shrine.
In a meeting with shopkeepers and hotel management in Tirumala, TTD Estate Officer Mallikarjuna said that starting Wednesday, there will be a total ban on plastic, including bottles, bags, and even shampoo sachets. He urged shop owners to cooperate with the TTD for the effective implementation of the ban.
Devotees will be allowed to go to Tirumala only after a thorough check at Alipiri. Henceforth, business owners have been advised to use biodegradable bags for packing clothes and toys, among other things.
Also, a mass cleaning drive would be taken up every Tuesday from 1 pm to 3 pm.
