During the programme, Prime Minister Modi highlighted environmental sustainability and urged citizens to tackle the growing challenge of plastic pollution through innovative recycling initiatives.
Speaking about an example from Bihar, the Prime Minister said, “My dear fellow countrymen, we all know that plastic pollution has become a major environmental challenge across the world today. Single-use plastic waste continues to harm nature for many years, which is why its proper disposal is extremely important. An excellent example of ‘Waste to Wealth’ has emerged from Sitamarhi, Bihar. Here, recycled plastic waste is being used to manufacture attractive benches. Around 40 kilograms of single-use plastic are used to make one bench…”
The Prime Minister said such initiatives demonstrate how waste can be transformed into useful public infrastructure while contributing to environmental conservation.
The monthly Mann Ki Baat programme continues to serve as a platform to highlight inspiring stories, community-driven innovations and national campaigns, with BJP leaders and supporters across the country participating in collective listening events for the Prime Minister’s address.
