Puducherry, dated 18th November 2019.

Present : Dr. T. ARUN, I.A.S.,

District Magistrate, Puducherry.

ORDER

(UNDER SECTION 144 OF Cr.P.C.)

Whereas, it has been brought to the knowledge of the undersigned that

the Paradise Beach, Chunnambar, Nonankuppam, Ariyankuppam Commune, Puducherry,

a famous tourist spot having high foot fall of visitors is facing increasing

use of plastic materials and its oriented littering thereby affecting the ecology and

aesthetic of the beach environment;

And whereas, there are chances of the plastic materials getting into the

sea directly due to the increasing trend of plastic usage among visitors to the

beach;

And whereas, it is pertinent to mention that the plastic waste getting into

the sea causes disturbing impacts on marine species and animals particularly

entanglement and ingestion leading to death. The entire marine ecology is highly

susceptible to plastic waste and thereby prompting preventive action on the side

of administration. Therefore, I am satisfied to restrict the use of plastic (in the form

of sale/storage/consumption/disposal) at the designated beach area of Paradise

Beach, Chunnambar and to create “No Plastic Zone”;

A “No Plastic Zone” is the place where tourists or visitors are strictly

restricted to use plastics within the areas of the designated beach and vendors

are completely restricted to sale plastic within this zone;

Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred upon me by the section

144 of Criminal Procedure Code, 1973, I, Dr. T. Arun, I.A.S., District Magistrate,

Puducherry, do hereby make the following written order for strict compliance that:

(i) “The Managing Director, Puducherry Tourism Development

Corporation (PT&DC), Puducherry, to restrict plastic use and selling

of plastic items within the areas of the designated beach. No other

activities which lead to increasing of plastic can be undertaken in

this designated area”.

(ii) This order shall come into force with immediate effect from

20-11-2019.

(iii) Any person contravening this order shall be punishable under

section 188 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.

As the notice cannot be served individually on all concerned, the order is

hereby passed ex parte. This shall be published for the information of the public

by affixing copies on the notice-board and all the offices located within the

Ariyankuppam Commune Panchayat Limit, including every public place.

At Puducherry, dated 18th day of November 2019.

Dr. T. ARUN, I.A.S.,

District Magistrate.
