The Golden Temple in Amritsar shall turn completely eco-friendly from April 1.
From tomorrow, the holiest Sikh shrine shall only use biodegradable bags.
In a joint initiative by the Punjab Pollution Control Board (PPCB) and the Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC), no plastic bags shall be used from April 1.
While the Punjab Government had banned the use of plastic bags way back in 2016, they were still in use for lack of any alternatives.
Darbar Sahib uses almost 265 quintals of plastic bags every year.
