HEALTH RISK
The Gujarat High Court has issued notices to the Gujarat State Fertiliser Corporation, Vadodara, Gujarat Pollution Control Board and the State government regarding air pollution. The Court's directive has come in the wake of a petition filed by Badodara Gramya Pradushan Nivaran Samiti protesting the rise in air pollution around the Fertiliser Corporation. According to the Samiti, even when the Corporation is operating at around 80 per cent of its capacity, the quality of air around the plant is not good for health.
