Bangladesh, Oct. 21 -- The pilot project under which 100,000 jute poly bags will be manufactured is nearing the end of its gestation period. It comes to an end on October 31, and the target of the project is reportedly going to be achieved. On the face of it, what may be intriguing is that the Bangladesh Jute Mills Corporation (BJMC) will seek investment for commercial production of the unique bags only on completion of the two and a half years pilot project. Notably, the biodegradable and more resilient jute poly bags invented by local scientist, Dr Mubarak Ahmed Khan, were produced on a trial basis at the state-owned Latif Bawani Jute Mills located in Demra. Redeemingly through, the pilot project is approaching its finishing line.
