Imphal, Apr 4 (DIPR): The Manipur Pollution Control Board (MPCB) has called for popularisation of the SUP (Single Use Plastic) Public Grievance App, aimed to control the menace of pollution due to Single Use Plastics in the country.
The need to popularise the SUP Public Grievance App was taken following the Board’s Proceedings of Second Inter-Departmental Coordination Meeting on ‘Cleanliness of Imphal City’ held on March 7.
The SUP Public Grievance App was launched earlier by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), Delhi to ensure citizen participation for effective enforcement on the ban of Single Use Plastic items identified in the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 (as amended).
The public can report the usage, manufacturing or stocking of banned SUP items to the concerned authority through the App.
The App can be downloaded and installed by scanning the QR code uploaded in the CPCB website “cpcb.nic.in” or from Google Play Store or Apple Store.
