## MINISTER  OF  STATE  FOR  CHEMICALS  AND  FERTILIZERS  &  NEW  AND RENEWABLE ENERGY (SH. BHAGWANTH KHUBA)

- (b) & (c) No Sir. Currently there is no proposal for approval of new Plastic Parks under the Scheme for setting up of Plastic Parks beyond the existing 10 Plastic parks which are under implementation.
- (d) Yes Sir. The proposal for establishment of a Plastic Park at Goraul, Vaishali was received from the State Government of Bihar. Since the proposal had plans only  for  20-25  units  hence  the  same  was  not  shortlisted  by  the  Expert Committee  constituted  by  the  Department  owing  to  the  non-viability  of  the same.
