Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh: Bisleri International Pvt. Ltd. partnered with Ghaziabad Nagar Nigam and Delhi-based NGO Indian Pollution Control Association (IPCA) to unveil Gazab Street, a distinctive street made using recycled plastic waste.

The other wall alongside the road displays colourful murals with impactful messages on saving the environment. Besides, slabs covering the drain passing through the street are made from recycled plastic waste. The entire street is set up with benches made from recycled plastic making it an Instagram-able tourist spot to sit, relax and admire the beauty.
Ghaziabad Mayor Asha Sharma inaugurated the street in the presence of Amrit Abhijat, Principal Secretary, Urban Development Department, Uttar Pradesh, Mahender Singh Tanwar, Commissioner, Ghaziabad Nagar Nigam, and Ashish Jain, Founder-Director, Indian Pollution Control Association.
