AMARAVATI – Rajahmundry Godavari river is completely polluted with chemicals – Pollution Control Board officials are not  following government regulations – How will devotees perform pujas in this river for the upcoming Pushkarams – We will discuss with the Chief Minister and take a strong decision in the Cabinet.

The pollution control authorities are not paying attention to the paper mill waste that is polluting the Holy Godavari in Rajahmundry. What is the real reason for not paying attention to what needs to be cleaned?

It is an incomprehensible question why the authorities are being generous even though such badly polluted water is directly flowing into the Godavari. The Deputy Chief Minister of the state, i Pawan Kalyan, expressed his anger at the authorities.

We will discuss it in the cabinet along with Chief Minister Shri Nara Chandrababu Naidu and make a strong decision. Local public representatives should also pay serious attention to this. How will the devotees who come to the upcoming Godavari Pushkarams perform pujas in these polluted Godavari waters?

After seeing the water here – they will get diseases if they come for a holy bath. Is it enough to beautify and decorate the ghats? Shouldn’t the water used for bathing there be pure? Pawan Kalyan said..

The coalition government is giving high priority to industrial development… We are allocating lands at subsidized prices to encourage industries.. No matter how much the government is cooperating, how can the industries not at least be environmentally conscious?

Rajamahendravaram Andhra Paper Mills Limited industry , Pawan Kalyan directly inspected the polluted water being discharged into Godavari on Tuesday morning.

The polluted water should be treated and released into Godavari. Yes. The Pollution Control Board conducted on-the-spot tests with mobile kits to determine the amount of pollutants in the water.

Responding on this occasion, Sri Pawan Kalyan questioned the Pollution Control Board EE  Shankar Nayak why the Pollution Control Board officials have not responded to this level of polluted water directly entering Godavari, or at least why they have not given notices to APP milles.

The district administration should work to immediately recover the Rs. 13 crore dues to be paid to the government in the form of taxes by the Andhra Paper Mills management.

Why haven’t the Pollution Control Board officials given a notice to the paper mill owners in Rajahmundry, where such terrible pollution is happening right before our eyes? Explaining, Pawan Kalyan ordered the concerned officials to first send a report to the Pollution Control Board Executive Officer.
