Mumbai: The Western Railways have taken a step ahead to promote Central Government’s initiative, the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan by recycling plastic into a beneficial product to the people.

The Churchgate station in Mumbai has installed three benches made of recycled plastic. According to a senior WR official: “It is perhaps the first time that recycled plastic is used in a core passenger amenity on Indian Railways. Following innovative and eco-friendly ways to curb the menace of plastic pollution, three benches made of recycled plastic have been installed at platforms 2 and 3 at Churchgate,” he said on Thursday. He also specified that these benches are strong and can bear a lot of weight.

भारतीय रेल की एक और नई पहल – रीसाइकलड प्लास्टिक से बने 3 बेंच पश्चिम रेलवे के चर्चगेट स्टेशन पर लगायें गए हैं। ये बेंच मजबूत एंव वज़नी हैं, इससे पर्यावरण को दूषित होने से बचाने में मदद मिलेगी । pic.twitter.com/xUDHbp29vw
