The Uttar Pradesh government will set up RRR centres in 11 municipal corporations. The RRR Reduce, Reuse and Recycle centres are part of the Meri Life, Mera Swachh Shahar’ campaign.
In these facilities, being hailed as Na Throw-Na Throw (a pun on Natu Natu song),waste materials such as clothes, books, toys, electrical and electronic equipment and machinery, among others, will be collected from the homes of people and distributed to people in need.
The municipal corporations where these RRR centres would come up include Lucknow, Kanpur Nagar, Varanasi, Meerut, Agra, Ghaziabad, Prayagraj, Aligarh, Bareilly, Moradabad and Saharanpur.
According to Urban Development Minister AK Sharma, a Na Throw-Na Throw chariot will be run in all the selected 11 municipal corporations.
Besides, the RRR centres will be developed as banks for clothes, books, utensils, and toys. The municipal corporations will operate them through various voluntary organisations, self-help groups and other organisations.
