Quthbullapur: Social activist Kola Ravinder Mudhiraj submitted a memorandum to Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corpoartion (GHMC) officials on Monday seeking ban on plastic covers usage at weekly markets.
He said plastic covers are piling up in drainages resulting in stagnation of drainage water and further leading to environmental pollution. He urged officials to organise awareness camps and sensitise people on hazardous effects of plastic usage.
