Good that you highlighted the issues. There are many such wetlands dying around the country unnoticed. Today many people have digital SLR cameras. Wish they too document the impact of mindless urbanisation and destruction of our wetlands, so that we can prevent those.
Disposal of urban wastes is a big challenge as there is hardly any waste treatment facilities. There is also no penalty on people who are dumping wastes.
The minimum that a person should do is to document, as you have done, and forward it to the local authorities and also to the highest authority of the State - The Chief Minister. You can register your protest by emails and letters and mark a copy to us at
sabyasachi.patra@indiawilds.com so that we can track those.
