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.

Floral offerings and organic waste can be converted into compost, while recyclab

Introduce a “Green Pilgrim Reward System” where devotees earn points for eco-friendly actions like waste segregation, using reusable bottles, and avoiding single-use plastics. Points can be redeemed for saplings, certificates, or eco-friendly gifts. Supported by QR-based tracking and Green Volunteers, this initiative can make the Mahashivratri Mela a model Zero Waste Mahotsav under the theme “Bhakti Bhi, Prakriti Bhi”.

mandating a single-use plastic ban, natural decor, and devotee-led reuse of containers and baskets. Strategically stationed NCC/NSS volunteers and dedicated cleaning crews ensure continuous waste segregation on-site. This environmental stewardship is reinforced through prominent cleanliness signage, the respectful return of cloth offerings, and green infrastructure like solar facilities, water refill stations and QR-based systems for donation payment at entry or seva

विषय: मध्य प्रदेश में रेल सेवाओं के समयपालन में सुधार हेतु सुझाव माननीय प्रधानमंत्री महोदय, मध्य प्रदेश में अनेक यात्री ट्रेनें लगातार विलंब से चल रही हैं, जिससे यात्रियों को भारी असुविधा होती है। यात्रियों में यह धारणा बन रही है कि मालगाड़ियों को अधिक प्राथमिकता मिलने से यात्री सेवाएं प्रभावित हो रही हैं। मेरा विनम्र अनुरोध है कि राज्य के प्रमुख रेल मार्गों पर समयपालन की समीक्षा कर यात्री ट्रेनों की समयबद्धता सुधारने हेतु आवश्यक कदम उठाए जाएं। इससे यात्रियों का विश्वास बढ़ेगा और भारतीय रेल की छ

I propose the “Prasad-to-Plant Circular Blessing System,” where devotees receive a biodegradable seed token with prasad. Organic mela waste is turned into compost for tree plantations, and a live dashboard tracks recycling and tree growth—promoting sustainability through “Bhakti Bhi, Prakriti Bhi.”
