NMMC unveils “RRR” initiative to buoy up ‘Reduce, Recycle & Reuse’
The Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation seems to be cashing in the Oscar award winning film “RRR” with their initiative “RRR: to buoy up ‘Reduce, Recycle & Reuse’ .
It is learnt that the initiative is part of the “Meri Life, Mera Swachh Shahar” initiative directed by Swachh Bharat Mission.
The NMMC’s recent move was hosted on the vehicles of SkrapNest, an e-commerce site to facilitate the buying and selling of old and used products.
Notably, the ScrapNest’s vehicles will come to the doorstep of citizens and collect waste from their homes, and in return would be paid according to rates fixed on the basis of the weight of the waste.
The civic body is taking a number of initiatives including ‘Recycle Mart’ that has been set up at D’Mart in Belapur under the ’21 Days Challenge’ of the central government.
In the midst of launching the service, NMMC Chief Rajesh Narvekar heaped praises on the concept of “Three R on Wheels” mentioning that through this facility the citizens of Navi Mumbai would be helped in waste management.
Rajesh adds that People of Navi Mumbai would be getting the facility to dispose off various types of dry waste right from their homes.
This will speed up the zero waste campaign in the region.
