Cloth Bag Vending Machines to be installed at public places soon : Tamil Nadu

IAS officer Supriya Sahu took to Twitter to demonstrate the prototype of a cloth bag vending machine being developed in Tamil Nadu. The machine dispenses a cloth bag at the insertion of a Rs 10 coin. This initiative was started to make eco-friendly bags more available to the public. The machine, once ready, will be installed at market places, bus stands etc. to slowly weed out plastic bags. It’s called a ‘Manjapai Vending Machine’ because it dispenses a yellow cloth bag (Manjapai) which is usually used at various ceremonies in Tamil Nadu.



Manjapai Vending Machine is finally here. It is a challenge to make cloth bags available in public places at an affordable cost. We are working to set up these machines at market places & bus stops etc Prototype is ready and details will come soon."
