Srinagar, Aug 04: In a move towards environmental conservation, the Gulmarg Development Authority (GDA) has announced a complete ban on the use of polythene and plastic within the eco-fragile zone of Gulmarg.
This step is part of a larger effort to maintain the pristine beauty of the ski-resort and promote eco-tourism.
According to the circular issued by the Office of the Chief Executive Officer, GDA, this ban aligns with the collective responsibility of stakeholders, including the local municipality and hoteliers, to keep Gulmarg clean.
The circular stresses the need for hoteliers to refrain from using plastic water bottles within their establishments and replace them with glass bottles within a month to ensure a complete switchover.
The Chief Executive Officer of the GDA highlighted that this initiative has been well-received by the hoteliers of Gulmarg, who have actively participated in various green initiatives and eco-tourism conclaves organized by the authority. The circular further instructs that the necessary measures for the transition to glass bottles be implemented within a month.
Local residents and tourists have hailed this move, expressing their support for the GDA’s efforts to preserve Gulmarg’s natural beauty. “This initiative is a crucial step towards environmental conservation,” said a local resident. “It needs to be implemented religiously to ensure that Gulmarg remains free of plastic pollution.”
