MARGAO: After its previous attempt coming a cropper for want of awareness and logistical support, the Margao Municipal Council has decided to give yet another try to make the commercial capital plastic free.
Margao Municipal Council Chairperson Arthur D’Silva said the civic body would give around a month’s time to the city’s shopkeepers and business establishments to dispose off their plastic bags stocks by January 26 next year. “One month’s time will be sufficient for the traders and shopkeepers to use the plastic bags and stop the sale of plastic bags thereafter”, Arthur said.
