Malpe, January 17: We find huge proportion dead fish across Udyavar to Malpe river.
Chemical waste water released out of fish refinement units some days ago has caused such tragedy. Poor fishermen who depend on river fishing for their daily bread are in panic.
Continuous release of poisonous water from fish refinement units have caused death of huge proportion of fishes.
Malpe Padukere Environment Safety Forum had conducted a meet at ‘Jnanodaya Bhajana Mandir’ about the problem on January 3rd and revealed their anger against department officers who have not taken any proper action for the same. Fishermen have urged to find alternate way for releasing poisonous water out of units.
“There will be severe protest after February 5th, by the fishermen if the concerned officials fail to do so”, said Committee President Vikram Mendon.
Several leaders such as Lakshman Bangera and others were present.
