A Supreme Court that's not Plastic

The Hindu : News / National : ‘Why not ban plastic bags?’: "The Supreme Court on Monday issued notice to the Centre and all the state governments on a plea seeking complete ban on use of plastic bags in the country.

A bench headed by Justice G.S. Singhvi also impleaded all the plastic manufacturing companies in the case and also sought the government’s response to put in place a proper mechanism for disposal of used plastic bags.

The apex court passed the order on a PIL filed by NGOs, seeking its direction to government to ban the use of plastic bags alleging that these are not disposed properly and are eaten by animals which get stuck in their stomach."
