The District Administration Baghpat invites citizens, youth, innovators and institutions from across India on MyGov to share innovative and practical ideas to transform the Shri Parshurameshwar Pura Mahadev Mahashivratri Mela into a Zero Waste Mahotsav on theme “Bhakti Bhi, Prakriti Bhi”.

Building on the successful implementation of a Zero Waste model during Falguni Mahashivratri 2026 celebrations, this initiative aims to further strengthen sustainable practices and develop Baghpat as a model for green and responsible religious gatherings in India.

Aligned with the vision of Mission LiFE (Lifestyle for Environment), Swachh Bharat and sustainable tourism, the initiative promotes environmentally responsible behaviour, reduction of waste, resource efficiency and community participation in large public events.

What kind of ideas are we looking for?
1. Participants are encouraged to submit practical, scalable and innovative ideas in areas such as:
a. Waste management and zero waste systems
b. Plastic-free alternatives for melas and religious events
c. Eco-friendly materials and green infrastructure
d. Awareness campaigns and behavioural change strategies
e. Volunteer and youth engagement models
f. Use of technology (apps, QR-based services, monitoring systems, etc.)
g. Sustainable tourism and visitor management

How to participate?
1. Submit your idea in maximum 200–300 words
2. Focus on solutions that can be practically implemented on ground
3. You may include examples, models or case references

What will happen to your ideas?
Selected ideas will be reviewed by the District Administration and considered for implementation during the Shravani Mahashivratri Mela scheduled in second week of August 2026. Selected contributions may also be recognised as part of a district-led innovation initiative and documented as good practices.

This is an opportunity to contribute to building a national model of sustainable religious events, promote environmental responsibility, and strengthen citizen participation in governance. Your ideas can help demonstrate how tradition, technology and sustainability can work together for a better future.

What would happen if all the sports leagues of India, Nepal, Bhutan, Srilanka & Myammar were merged and each sports league was made into a single league according to its sport? Merging the sports leagues of these Countries into single, unified leagues would create a massive South Asian sports ecosystem. This would dramatically increase commercial value, enhance competitiveness for smaller nations, and create a high-revenue, high-visibility market similar to a mega Sports Events.

The Idea: Mobilize local college, NCC, and NSS students into a Green Volunteer Sena. Details: Volunteers will be stationed at entry points to intercept single-use plastics and distribute reusable cloth or jute bags to devotees. They can also guide pilgrims and manage smart color-coded waste bins.

Plastic-Free Festival Ban single-use plastic bags, cups, plates, and bottles. Encourage cloth bags and reusable water bottles. Eco-Friendly Prasad Distribution Serve prasad in leaf bowls (dona-pattal) or reusable steel utensils. Avoid plastic packaging. Waste Segregation System Place separate bins for: Wet waste (flowers, food leftovers) Dry waste (paper, cardboard) Recyclables (metal, glass) Flower Waste Management Collect temple flowers separately. Convert them into compost, incense sticks, or natural colors. Cleanliness Pledge Encourage devotees to take a "Zero Waste Mahashivratri" pledge. Organize a post-event cleanliness drive. Green Transportation Promote carpooling, cycling, and shared transport to reduce congestion and emissions. Waste Audit and Recognition Measure the amount of waste generated and diverted from landfills. Recognize volunteers, vendors, and groups contributing to the zero-waste effort. Expected Outcomes Cleaner temple premises. Reduced environment.

Green Volunteer Model for Zero Waste Mahotsav To make the Shri Parshurameshwar Pura Mahadev Mahashivratri Mela a Zero Waste Mahotsav, local school and college students can be engaged as Green Volunteers. They will guide devotees on waste segregation, promote the use of eco-friendly materials and help keep the mela premises clean. Separate bins for wet and dry waste should be installed throughout the mela. Flower offerings and food waste can be collected for composting. QR codes can provide information on waste disposal points and facilities. Students who successfully complete their volunteer service may receive appreciation certificates through MyGov or the District Administration. This will encourage youth participation while promoting cleanliness, environmental responsibility and the spirit of “Bhakti Bhi, Prakriti Bhi”.

• Baghpat Clay & Leaf Mandate: Mandate that all food stalls, langars, and temporary stalls use local terracotta kulhads for tea/ milk and pressed pattal (leaf plates made of Banyan or Palash leaves) instead of plastic-coated paper cups or styrofoam plates.

The Sacred Milk Decentralization Grid: During Mahashivratri, massive quantities of milk are offered. Install heavy-duty, stainless-steel filtration channels directly beneath the Jalhari (drainage outlet of the Shivaling). This diverted, clean, high-volume milk runoff can be safely collected in refrigerated containers and sent directly to local gaushalas (cow shelters) for cattle feeding or used in stray animal welfare feeds.

The District Administration of Baghpat is gathering actionable ideas to transform the upcoming Shravani Mahashivratri Mela at the Shri Parshurameshwar Pura Mahadev Temple into a "Zero Waste Mahotsav" under the theme "Bhakti Bhi, Prakriti Bhi". Citizens and organizations can submit proposals on the MyGov India Platform. Temple Waste Upcycling: Establish an in-situ composting unit or collaborate with local Gaushalas (cowsheds) to convert massive amounts of leftover food, milk offerings, and floral waste into organic manure. Flower & Coconut Byproducts: Partner with Self-Help Groups (SHGs) to process discarded flowers into natural incense (agarbatti) and flower colors, while repurposing coconut husks for fuel or composting Utensil & Jute Banks: Prohibit plastic carry bags at entry points. Provide devotees with cloth or jute bags and set up "Steel Utensil Banks" where vendors and langar (community kitchen) organizers can lease reusable plates and cups.Biodegradable Tableware: Require al
