For the first time, the BBMP on Monday seized a truck carrying over 25 kilos of single-use plastic bags that the state government had banned in 2015.

The truck driver was planning to deliver the consignment of 177 bags to SV Road, from where it would have been distributed to several shops in KR Market and nearby areas. The marshals have taken the lead to confiscate the consignment that had come from Gujarat.

Soon after the seizure, the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB) directed the civic body to take action against the offender under the BBMP’s Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016 and the state government’s notification dated March 11, 2016.

Officials vowed to raid places in all zones and confiscate plastic.

“We will first raid places where banned plastic is being manufactured. Stringent action will also be taken against bulk distributors who continue to indulge in the distribution of single-use plastic. By doing so, we want to ensure that plastic below 40 microns is not available in retail shops,” an official said.
