Jha sounded happy with the way the green campaign has managed to find its place in the district. “I was pleasantly surprised when I saw how people are trying to devise innovative techniques to suit their requirements to install the green gardens. A businessman, who was not able to get waste bottles of green colour, got the normal bottles painted. In another case, a person got the saplings planted in waste mustard oil bottles.”
SS Rai, a city businessman, who has installed a vertical garden at his home in Parkash Nagar, is thankful to the I-T department for its green plastic initiative.
“This is a wonderful project and the cost isn’t much when compared to the other methods available in the market to make the lawns green and beautiful. This technique, also, helps to make use of the waste plastic bottles, which otherwise we throw away only to add to the environmental problems,” he said.
