Hi friend
Bolaram has an Industrial Development Area. This is a private
industrial area developed by entrepreneurs and has many
small and medium scale industries. Most of these industries
are pharmaceutical units that manufacture bulk drugs like
sulphamethoxazole, ibuprofen, trimethoprim and paracetamol.
There are around 40 industries in this area3
.
There has been no proper waste disposal facilities built in
these areas, combined with this is the fact that industries have
been wantonly disposing off their waste in nearby land or into
water bodies. The combined industrial estates in Bollaram and
Patancheru generate a cumulative
8 x 10 6
1/day of effluents which are directly discharged into
surrounding land, irrigation fields and surface water bodies.4
The Nakkavagu stream that flows through the industrial estate
in Patancheru bears the brunt of waste disposal of over 100
industries. This, once clean, stream was used by surrounding
villages for irrigation and drinking purposes. The estate, which
consists of paint, plastic, chemical and bulk drug industries
routinely dump their waste into the stream. Pollution to this
stream has destroyed approximately 2000 acres of farmland
besides contaminating well water to the level of 140 feet5
. In
1990 the then Union Minister of State for Planning Mr. Bhage
Govardhan told press persons that the people around Patancheru
were suffering from a variety of mysterious diseases caused by
water and air pollution.6
The Health officer of Patancheru
conducted a health survey;
the findings of which were handed over to the District Medical
Officer of Medak district. The accompanying letter said “ --- I am
to inform you that due to industrial effluents in the Patancheru
Industrial area 14 villages are affected with chemical pollution
---”13 The report finds –
1. “Morbidity rate in the area showing an increasing trend
which is evident from past rate of 10.18% in 1991
October and present rate of 25.49%.”
2. “---- Orthopedic problems are more followed by skin
health problems.”
3. “In all types of diseases the female population is
experiencing higher morbidity.”
4. “There is clear circumstantial evidence that the
Nakkavagu water is continuously getting polluted with
partially treated industrial effluents.”
5. “Inadequate and irregular water supply of drinking
water to the 14 villages predispose them to the hazards
of water pollution as the bore well is the only alternative
source.”
