Dear MPCB Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your urgent attention a critical environmental issue in B Ward, specifically within the Masjid Bunder area. Our society, New Bhagwan Bhuvan, is facing a severe problem with illegal kharkhanaas operating in the vicinity.
The situation is dire, with approximately 100 illegal chimneys installed, emitting harmful substances into the air. Multiple complaints have been lodged with various departments, but unfortunately, the issue persists, endangering the health of our residents.
We earnestly request the immediate intervention of the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) to address and resolve this pressing matter. The illegal kharkhanaas are not only causing environmental pollution but are also using harmful acids, posing a significant risk to the well-being of the community.
We kindly urge the MPCB to:
* Conduct a thorough investigation into the illegal kharkhanaas operating in B Ward, Masjid Bunder.
* Take immediate action to shut down these illegal operations.
* Collaborate with other relevant departments to ensure a comprehensive and effective resolution.
* Regularly monitor and enforce environmental regulations to prevent the recurrence of such illegal activities.
The residents of New Bhagwan Bhuvan Society are deeply concerned about the impact on our health and the environment. Your swift action in this matter is crucial, and we trust that the MPCB will take all necessary steps to address the issue promptly.
Thank you for your attention and commitment to safeguarding our environment and the well-being of the community.
Sincerely,
Sarfaraz Shaikh
