Kolhapur | Friday | 15th February, 2019

Summary:

"The two municipal bodies need to cooperate more to resolve the Panchganga river pollution issue. "The MPCB has no sustainable plan to minimise the river pollution. "The Panchganga originates from Prayag Chikhali, 8km from Kolhapur, and is formed by four tributaries - Kumbhi, Kasari, Tulsi and Bhogavati. We will start working on small sewage treatment plants," he said.According to an MPCB report, communication between the MPCB and the KMC has steadily increased in the last four years. The magnitude of pollution and the environmental load should be taken care of by the board..
