Unknown — Air Pollution due to burning garbage and (probably) industrial waste

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing from Hydershakote. I live on the banks of the Musi river, in Sairam Nagar Colony behind SMP Model School. About half a kilometer away is Kendriya Vihar which is also along the banks of the river.

Lately, we are experiencing severe air pollution due to burning of garbage by unknown people near Kendriya Vihar. Staying at a distance we are not able to spot the exact point where the burning activity is being conducted, but we could see heavy smoke clouds dispersing and travelling towards our colony. The smoke and fumes smell toxic and are causing severe breathing issues accompanied by burning. Despite closing all the doors, we are feeling the suffocation and the side effects of the pollution.

I tried to take pictures but the burning is usually done after 9 PM. In the dark, I am unable to capture pictures but the cloud smokes are visible to the naked eye.

I on behalf of several other from Sairam Nagar colony, reguest you to take appropriate action to stop this burning and restore the air quality in the area.
