Dhaka,
Aug 30 (UNB) - The State Guest House Jamuna, the office of Chief Adviser Prof

and urged her fellow members of the advisory council to cease using plastic
bottles.
Chief adviser Yunus,
endorsed the idea, leading to Jamuna now being recognized as a plastic
bottle-free zone.
According to Shafiqul
Alam, the chief adviser's press secretary, it has been about a week since the
State Guest House stopped using plastic bottled water. "Initially, I
thought it wouldn't be possible, but it's been about a week since we made the
switch," he said.
