Shri Uday Samant, Minister for Industries, Govt. of Maharashtra
Maharashtra joined the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Global Plastic Action Partnership (GPAP) in 2022 as part of its efforts to combat plastic pollution. The move, announced during the WEF’s annual meeting held in Davos, Switzerland, follows the fifth United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA 5), in which member nations agreed to be held legally accountable for their contributions to the global plastic pollution crisis.
The move reinforces Maharashtra’s commitment to reducing plastic pollution, raising its anti-pollution ambitions and guaranteeing accountability and inclusivity throughout the value chain.
It will bring together major stakeholders in the state, including business leaders, policymakers, civil society organisations and plastic experts to develop a state-wide plan to eliminate plastic pollution.
