Subject: Views on the article ‘Ban Poly Bags’.

Dear Sir,

This is with regard to a recent article titled ‘Ban Poly Bags’ published in your magazine last week.

I would like to present a few views in regard to the recent incessant bans on polythene bags all over the city. While it is no doubt a welcome move to help the environment, it is leaving consumers bewildered about what alternatives to use.

Supermarkets are selling cloth bags at Rs. 30 per piece. These bags are hardly sturdy and consumers have to carry at least 3-4 while doing their monthly shopping. Secondly, the jute bags that no one hardly purchased are now being sold for double the price even at wholesale bag shops.

Most of the restaurant delivery parcels are delivered in bags that look like they are made from cloth but actually have non-recyclable material in them.

Banning plastic but not monitoring the prices of cloth bags is bad both for the government and the environment. Cheap plastic bags are still used by local vegetable vendors, and the common middle-class consumer is not going to spend from their already limited income on reusable bags.

Through your magazine, I just want to make the authorities aware that half-baked changes only cause further disruption. It would be great if consumers are providing with a fixed place and price for sustainable products so that bad businesses stop looting us.

Thank you for this opportunity to express my thoughts on the said matter. I am optimistic that my plea reaches the intended authorities and steps are taken to make the poly ban a successful exercise.

Yours sincerely,

Kavita Khanna

Which sentence in this excerpt from leo tolstoy’s the death of ivan ilyich shows the human tendency to contemplate one’s past life? "but if that is so," he said to himself, "and i am leaving this life with the consciousness that i have lost all that was given me and it is impossible to rectify it—what then? " he lay on his back and began to pass his life in review in quite a new way. in the morning when he saw first his footman, then his wife, then his daughter, and then the doctor, their every word and movement confirmed to him the awful truth that had been revealed to him during the night. in them he saw himself—all that for which he had lived—and saw clearly that it was not real at all, but a terrible and huge deception which had hidden both life and death. this consciousness intensified his physical suffering tenfold. he groaned and tossed about, and pulled at his clothing which choked and stifled him. and he hated them on that account. he was given a large dose of opium and became unconscious, but at noon his sufferings began again. he drove everybody away and tossed from side to side. his wife came to him and said: "jean, my dear, do this for me. it can't do any harm and often . healthy people often do it." he opened his eyes wide. "what? take communion? why? it's unnecessary! " she began to cry. "yes, do, my dear. i'll send for our priest. he is such a nice man." "all right. very well," he muttered. when the priest came and heard his confession, ivan ilyich was softened and seemed to feel a relief from his doubts and consequently from his sufferings, and for a moment there came a ray of hope. he again began to think of the vermiform appendix and the possibility of correcting it. he received the sacrament with tears in his eyes.
