Background
Chambal ghats attract pilgrims and tourists but lack consistent waste management infrastructure.
Current Situation
Plastic bottles and food wrappers accumulated along 1.2 km of ghat steps after festival season.
Environmental Impact
120 volunteers collected, segregated, and sent waste to recycling partners; awareness stalls distributed cloth bags.
Actions Taken
800 kg plastic diverted from river; local municipality committed to weekly bin placement.
Results
Recycling partner capacity limited; some mixed waste still rejected.
Future Recommendations
Install permanent segregation bins; run monthly drives; ban single-use plastic vendors during festivals.
