Before disposal, the plastic waste was segregated and sent for recycling and the rest of the garbage was collected in the bags that were provided by the Grampanchayat. It was realized that a lot of non-biodegradable wastes and glass bottles were being thrown in the nearby areas as well as the entrance of the beach.
