National Best Practices Manual on Pulp & Paper Industry by CII Sohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre and IPMA: CII-Sohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre and IPMA have launched National Best Practices Manual for Pulp & Paper Industry titled �Making Indian Pulp & Paper Industry World Class�. The manual has been developed based on the learning of the working group during the visits to individual plants. The working group was formulated with participation from Paper Mills, Consultants and Equipment Suppliers. The manual would benefit both the participating and the nonparticipating companies. This would also initiate the process of sharing best practices among pulp and paper industry.
Multi Stakeholder Partnership (MSP) model proposed by MoEF: After holding wide ranging discussion for more than 2 years with Govt. Ministries, Industries, Apex Chambers, NGOs, Opinion Leaders etc., Ministry of Environment & Forests ultimately evolved a MSP model for forestation of degraded land. It provides a win-win situation to all � the State, Local Community and the User Industry.
