Plastic is the least of Delhi's problems. First they should be banning vehicles that don't meet emission standards. I visited there twice and I'll be lucky if I don't come down with some lung problem. Edit: They should ban the burning of plastic, not plastic itself. And enforce it.
No matter what we do it will never wipe away your prejudice, my friend.
Can we get the title changed to make it clear that India banned plastic in Delhi not all of India. Also the title says "literally all disposable plastic" then in the article it says applies to cups, bags, cutlery.
Thanks, we've updated the submission title to a representative phrase from the article.

Banning it is one thing, we'll see if they can actually enforce it.
titlegore "Delhi has banned disposable plastic" Not all of India. Just Delhi.

Rwanda also has this policy, since 2008, and they enforce it. The country is very clean, it looks different than other African countries (and countries like the US), just because there is no plastic rubbish everywhere. I think this is a very good policy, and would welcome it at home. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/feb/15/rwanda...

The reason I mention this is that it may be directing action to local vendors, but not necessarily regional/national drink vendors.
