PRAYAGRAJ: In an innovative and eco-friendly step, tiles, pebbles and bricks made from tons of construction waste and debris collected from across Sangam city is being used in the development works being undertaken by the Prayagraj Municipal Corporation (PMC) for the Mahakumbh-2025.
PMC had set up a construction and demolition (C&D) waste recycling plant at Baswar in December 2021.
The municipal corporation is not only buying 40% of the finished construction products from this plant but also helping to sell them. Due to this, cheap and environment-friendly construction materials are also being made available to the citizens, said officials.
Established under Prayagraj Smart City Project, this is the first C&D plant of Uttar Pradesh, which is being managed by the Municipal Corporation and is designed to minimise environmental impact and maximise resource recovery, they said.
