Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed parliament wearing a Nehru jacket made of recycled plastic bottles.
On February 8, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed parliament wearing a Nehru jacket made of recycled plastic bottles to promote sustainability.
During the budget session of Parliament, the PM was seen wearing a sky-blue “bandhgala” jacket, which is made from 28 single-use plastic bottles.
Reportedly, the jacket was gifted by the Indian Oil Corporation during India Energy Week in Bengaluru.
It should be noted that the Indian Oil Corporation recycles 10 crore bottles every year, which will also be used to make drones for the armed forces.
