Promoting sustainable waste

Earlier this month CM Rekha Gupta inaugurated 'Arpan', a donation centre for old clothes at Punjabi Bagh West Metro Station, marking a significant step towards promoting sustainable waste management and advancing a circular economy in the National Capital.

The 'Arpan' initiative seeks to encourage citizens to donate their old, wearable clothes for reuse, recycling and upcycling, thereby reducing textile waste, conserving valuable resources and fostering responsible consumption. By extending the life cycle of clothing, the initiative aims to minimise waste sent to landfills while promoting environmentally sustainable practices across Delhi.

Beyond its environmental impact, the initiative is also designed to generate sustainable livelihood opportunities for women through the collection, sorting and processing of donated clothes. This will help create a community-driven model that combines environmental responsibility with social and economic empowerment.
