Delhi's Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has announced an initiative to enhance environmental sustainability by placing clothing collection boxes at 10 major Metro stations. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) will oversee this project, allowing residents to deposit old garments for recycling. CM Gupta emphasized the need to address the growing issue of textile waste, stating that the initiative aims to promote scientific recycling and support sustainable development. The selected stations include Shahdara, Mohan Estate, and Rohini West, among others. The collected clothes will be sorted and distributed to reputable non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and self-help groups (SHGs) for reuse or upcycling into items such as bags and rugs. Any remaining garments will be sent to recycling units to convert them into yarn, fiber, and non-woven felt. The project will be branded under the Delhi Metro Ladies Welfare Organisation (DMLWO), and formalities for installation and partnerships are underway, with a launch expected soon.
