Water is life, but for the residents living near the industrial belt, it has become poison. Chemical effluents are being discharged directly into the canals under the cover of night. Over the last month, we have mobilized residents, conducted community audits, and stood in peaceful demonstration outside the municipal corporation office.
Our activism is not just about protesting; it is about finding solutions. We have petitioned the State Pollution Control Board and demanded the installation of a 24/7 effluent monitoring system at all nearby factories. We will not back down until the water runs clear again.
Join our next community meeting this Sunday at the Town Hall. Your voice matters in this fight for environmental justice.
