State Needs 3 Years to Phase Out PoP Idols

The Maharashtra state government has informed the High Court that it will require a period of three years to completely phase out the use of Plaster of Paris (PoP) idols.

This decision comes after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's appeal to use eco-friendly clay idols instead of PoP idols.

Advocate General Milind Sathe submitted to the High Court that the state is willing to follow the Prime Minister's appeal but cannot impose a complete ban on PoP idols this year.

The reason for this is that a large number of PoP idols have already been manufactured and are ready for sale.

The state government has proposed a plan to gradually phase out the use of PoP idols over the next three years.

This plan is aimed at promoting the use of eco-friendly clay idols, which are more environmentally friendly and can reduce pollution in the state's water bodies.

The use of PoP idols has been a major concern for the state government, as they do not dissolve easily in water and can cause significant pollution.

The state government's decision to phase out PoP idols is a step towards reducing pollution and promoting eco-friendly practices in the state.

The High Court is expected to hear the matter further and provide its verdict on the state government's plan.

The phase-out of PoP idols is expected to have a significant impact on the environment and the idol-making industry in the state.

The state government's plan to promote eco-friendly clay idols is a welcome move, as it will help reduce pollution and promote sustainable practices.

In the long run, the phase-out of PoP idols is expected to benefit the environment and the people of the state.

The state government's decision is a significant step towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future.

It is expected that the phase-out of PoP idols will be completed within the next three years, and the state will see a significant reduction in pollution caused by these idols.
