Plastic Covers of Food Packets to be Phased Out

Known for causing pollution hazards, the multi-layered plastics, the shiny cover in which several ready-to-eat food, chips, and biscuits as well as tobacco products are being sold, will be phased out soon. The Union Environment Ministry has notified an amendment to the Plastic Waste Management (Amendment) Rules 2018, adding the multi-layered plastics to the list of plastics that it expects to be phased out. Multi-layered plastics are non-recyclable and pollute soil and water bodies. According to the ministry, a central registration system will be in place, and the names of producers, importers, and brand owners will be part of it. The centralized registration system will be evolved by Central Pollution Control Board for the registration of the producer/importer/brand owner.
