This document summarizes a project aimed at banning polythene bags in Patiala, Punjab over 5 years. The project would train students to educate others about the harmful effects of polythene bags, such as clogging drains and spreading disease. Students would encourage shops and families to use alternative bags like jute bags. The project would also file a public interest litigation and sensitize government departments to implement a polythene bag ban. Over one year, the project aims to create public awareness and get support from government to place restrictions on polythene bags.
