Kerala Promotes Menstrual Cups for Hygiene and Environment

In Kerala, India, the state government is encouraging the use of menstrual cups instead of sanitary napkins.

The Finance Minister, K N Balagopal, says cups are better for personal hygiene and the environment.

They also started a project to install special machines called incinerators to safely dispose of sanitary waste.

This project is part of Kerala's effort to be more environmentally friendly.

The government has set aside money for these cups and incinerators.

They had a meeting to talk about this and teach people how to use the cups and the incinerators.

This is the first time a state in India has done something like this in their budget.
