Visakhapatnam , May 17

IN view of the increased industrial activity in Visakhapatnam and several projects coming up in the near future, strict pollution control measures should be taken, opines the district committee of the Communist Party of India (Marxist).

In a memorandum submitted to the Thyagaraju Committee on pollution control (appointed by the Supreme Court) here on Tuesday, the party said the pollution levels had risen alarmingly in recent times and air pollutants were being let out without hindrance. There was no check on the industrial units.

The beach too was being subjected to ecological degradation, with the Visakha Municipal Corporation permitting construction of several residential colonies on the beach front.
