However, some people and merchants are stilling using the plastic bags, most of the people at Arani Town Panchayat started to bring their own shopping bags for their different shopping experiences in the Streets of Arani. The Pillars of India and Arani ExNoRa are planning to conduct a “Plastic Ban Awareness Program” to give the awareness about the importance to stop the usage of plastic carry bags. Hope this Plastic ban awareness program will stimulate every individual to stop using plastic bags.
