In a proactive move, a team from the Solid Waste Management Department of the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) conducted an undercover operation by posing as customers interested in purchasing paper cups at Shree Kuldevi Disposable House in Vastral. Upon the trader's response, the officer initiated an investigation, resulting in the seizure of 340 kg of prohibited plastic items, including single-use plastic cups, from the shop. Subsequently, the shop and its godown were sealed. Additionally, 17 units in East Zone faced closure due to illegal plastic usage and public littering.
