In this world full of all kind of negativity ,rather than showing us the dirtiest cities , thanks for showing what we are doing right and where we should head !🌺

[@vigneshbaskar1541]

Kumbakonam Now Upgraded Corporation...🔥

[@jithugeevarghese4823]

Good documentary, but it would have been beneficial to the viewers if you explain the use of plastic fuel more. Is the plastic is incinerated to use it as fuel, if so what are the measures taken to avoid air pollution. Wouldn't it make the pollution problem much worse if we use plastic to construct roads, aren't we spreading the waste throughout the country. What happens to the plastic waste which gets into the atmosphere when the plastic mixed roads wear, is there any measures taken to tackle this. Please address these issues also. Good videography, narration and presentation.

[@shivank296]

Please Down to earth, provide us a similar practical documentary on the management of medical waste, as I am working on it. Your documentaries are the master piece.

[@vrajbrahmbhatt3581]

So proud of these people, their initiatives and my India as a whole, I wish that Mumbai should also adopt this excellent model of waste management.

[@KarthikeyanVisvanathan]

Thank you. In reality it is so different. Last one week what i observed was, all wastes are just burnt in the sides of the roads. Municipality workers are collecting from streets and dumping it in one place and burning it. From chettimandapam to ammachathiram I'm witnessing this daily.

[@indianphilatelistandnumism5902]

Sir தமிழா? Kumbakonam?

[@Alwayslovingdude]

Great job you are doing...salutes...jai hind

[@OublietteTight]

Great Series! Go India! What steps are the cement factories taking to capture their air pollution?

[@srinivasanjayakumar8931]

Namma Kumbakonam

[@mayankbansal250]

Hello, you are doing great work. Waiting for more such content.

[@aashnainayat2764]

Thanku so much for this dose of positivity!

[@giridharanvasu1013]

But unfortunately when you guys uploaded this video, Kumbakonam promoted as Municipal Corporation. I can see it was mentioned as Kumbakonam Muncipality in most of the places in videos. If it is possible you people can edit it as corporation. Even in muncipality office building name was changed as Kumbakonam Municipal corporation. :(

[@roopa4950]

Great initiative but what to do when from milk to bread, vegetables to meat, medicine or daily needs comes in plastic bags only? Hates to use them

[@AuthorBooksReader]

Wow!!! Such an great initiative!!!! Why government is not making any proper plans for waste segregation.?

[@aathyanthantheinfinite111]

Happy and proud to say, Kumbakonam is my birth place.

[@akshay7809]

Good news ❤️

[@34lokeshhatzade74]

Can I get detail report of these

[@lohith_sai]

Cost of transportation seems to be the major issue in this recycling process Other ways of tackling plastic waste:- *Using the waste as fuel *Using the waste for road laying

[@udishomer5852]

They are using the non-recyclable plastic as fuel (in the cement factories).

[@abadepill816]

Good 👍success

[@rammanohar4804]

Good

[@RGz-hh6zk]

Waiting for Surat episode because i am from Surat And i wanna know where we lack instead of getting praised

[@kalpanasundaresan6005]

Because Modi rules India, anti national elements hate India itself in the process of hating Modi.

[@anjanikumar6742]

Just one question:we are burning non-recyclable plastics,will it not cause air-pollution?

[@udishomer5852]

If burned as is, yes, but there are technologies to minimize pollution to almost nothing. If these technologies are mandated there is not problem.

[@baumi8125]

It's ridiculous that this isn't done in first world countries that have all the resources available to them, comparatively (that have been stolen from what are now poorer countries). Hopefully they'll soon follow India's example, though I somehow doubt it, they'll only do if it provides some sort of profit most of the time even if it provides incalculable benefits for the environment and for the people. (sorry to be pessimistic, it's great that this is being done in the first place just it's a sad state that the countries that could definitely do this if they wanted to (or the politicians/government wanted to) aren't already, instead we have greenwashed companies making keepsakes and brickabrack instead of actual change)

[@Malkava24]

Plastic a sweet poison, many love.Isnt it?
