ISLAMABAD, Jun 15 (APP):The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has started
distributing biodegradable bags among the citizens of Islamabad, following the directions of Chief Commissioner Muhammad Ali Randhawa, ahead of Eid-ul-Azha.
CDA sanitation staff is
distributing biodegradable bags door-to-door. Additionally, biodegradable bag
distribution counters have been set up in five major cattle markets across Islamabad.
Biodegradable bags are being
distributed free of cost at these counters. Relevant staff have been deployed at the CDA
distribution points.
Following the instructions of Chairman CDA, biodegradable bags are also being
distribu
ted in Islamabad’s rural areas.
It is worth noting that in urban areas, bag
distribution is being managed by the respective Sanitary Inspectors, while in rural areas, the Union Council Secretaries are overseeing the
distribution. The aim of
distributing these waste bags is to prevent dirt and pollution in the city.
Using biodegradable bags simplifies waste disposal, as they naturally decompose
over time and turn into waste on their own.
