MLA Vedavyas comes with an Amazing Initiative for Parcel Service: Food Delivery Gaint Responds

June 20: Mangalore South MLA D Vedavyas Kamath came up with an amazing initiative of covering food parcel in banana leaf instead of plastic.
He in his social media account of Facebook and Instagram requested the hoteliers and food delivery Apps to follow this to make Mangalore Plastic free.
He wrote
“Greetings Kudla,
Plastic waste should be controlled well in Mangalore, Here is one step, I request Hoteliers of Mangalore to pack the dishes(non gravy) ordered to be covered in Banana leaf.
Tulunad is famous for having dishes which is made with help of leaves, like Manjel aretha Gatti( Patholi), Moode, Gunda(kottige) etc, and we all know how the aroma is coz of it. Let us implement this in packaging.
As delivery of food is increasing in Mangalore, I Would like the FOOD DELIVERY apps to support this cause by supporting our hoteliers of Mangalore in providing best benefit to them. This will not only reduce PLASTIC WASTE, but also will increase the taste of the dish coz of the Banana Leaf flavor.
Please Note: Its just a request for betterment of Mangalore, not a rule.
Thank you.
Zomato Swiggy. Do support.
