Summary:
I have asked the milk dairies to submit a buyback mechanism plan in the next two months. Now, the milk dairies have been asked to submit details of plastic pouches ordered from manufacturers. Shiv Sena leader and Environment Minister Ramdas Kadam said that there is no ban on the use of plastic pouches for milk. “Despite the lapse of the deadline, we were not insisting that milk dairies come up with a buyback mechanism considering the ongoing crisis in the sector,” said the official. An undertaking will be taken from plastic manufacturers, stating that the pouches are exclusively for milk dairies..
