Explanation:
During the past few years, industrial units in the vicinity of Pune have been dumping untreated waste into the river, destroying the quality of water. When a recent survey carried out by the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) found that rivers from Pune carry polluted water, environmentalists were not surprised. The MPCB in its recent report has categorised the water quality of rivers flowing through Pune district as “bad or very bad”. According to MPCB officials, besides industrial waste, domestic waste is also creating pollution in the rivers.
Out of the 744 million litres per day (MLD) of waste generated by Pune through sewage and other means, 177 MLD of waste is entering the rivers without treatment. For the past few years, residents of Indapur taluka in Pune district have been facing a dual crisis. On one hand they have been receiving inadequate rainfall with the water level of Ujani dam dipping which provides water in the region, on the other hand toxic contents present in the water have caused several ailments among the locals.
