BANDIPORA, JULY 23: Under the directions of the Housing and Urban Development Department and as part of Swachh Bharat Mission Urban 2.0, the Municipal Committee Bandipora launched a mass distribution and pasting drive of instructional waste segregation stickers across the town to promote compliance with the Solid Waste Management (SWM) Rules 2026.<\/p>\n
The drive, as per an official statement, is being carried out on the ground by dedicated Community Mobilisers and Swachhata Executives, who are visiting door-to-door, interacting with residents and pasting colour-coded instructional stickers at prominent collection points to establish a four-bin segregation system at the source. The initiative aims to streamline municipal waste processing, protect sanitation workers and significantly reduce the volume of waste sent to dumping grounds.<\/p>\n
Under the four-bin system, the blue sticker designates dry recyclable waste such as paper, plastic, glass, metal cans, cardboard boxes and Tetra Paks, with an instruction that all materials must be clean and dry. The green sticker covers biodegradable wet waste, including food scraps, vegetable and fruit peels, leftover meals, tea leaves, coffee grounds and garden waste like leaves and grass.<\/p>\n
For specialised waste, the red sticker guides the safe disposal of hygiene items including sanitary pads, diapers, cotton, tissues, wet wipes and menstrual cups. The black sticker addresses special care household hazardous waste, providing explicit guidelines for items like used batteries, expired medicines, thermometers, tube lights, bulbs, chemicals and nail polish or removers.<\/p>\n
Community Mobilisers and Swachhata Executives are continuing their outreach across all municipal wards in Bandipora. The Municipal Committee Bandipora has appealed to all citizens, shop owners and institutions to cooperate with the field staff and actively follow the four-bin rule to support a cleaner and healthier town.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
