M-sand, or manufactured sand, is produced by crushing hard granite stone to a fine powder. It is an eco-friendly alternative to river sand and is used for various construction purposes.
The government is promoting m-sand to reduce the environmental impact of river sand mining, ensure consistent quality in construction materials, and support sustainable development.
The benefits of using m-sand include reduced environmental damage, consistent quality, better structural integrity, and potential economic growth through new job opportunities in the m-sand manufacturing sector.
The government is providing training programs, workshops, incentives, and subsidies to ensure a smooth transition to m-sand, making it an attractive option for businesses.
The long-term impact of using m-sand includes reduced pressure on natural water bodies, improved construction quality, and a more sustainable and environmentally friendly construction industry.
