Breakdown
The claim that Chennai offers rewards for returning plastic bottles through recycling machines is supported by multiple sources [1][2][3][4][5][6][8][9]. These initiatives are in place to reduce plastic waste and promote recycling.
However, the assertion that Chennai now gives ₹5 for every eligible bottle is not entirely accurate. While some reports mention a ₹5 reward [1][10], other sources indicate that the rewards can be in the form of eco-friendly reusable bags [2][4][9] or gift coupons [5].
There is also a separate scheme for liquor bottles that offers ₹10 [7]. The reel itself acknowledges that availability, reward value, and eligibility may vary depending on the machine, operator, and local program [1], which aligns with the varied information found in the sources.
Therefore, the claim is partially true as rewards are offered, but the specific amount of ₹5 for every bottle is not consistently reported across all instances. [1][2][3]
