Stop Killing Govandi citizens. Shut down Bio medical waste incinerator #SaveGovandi

The Issue

Residents of Govandi have been battling for decades against environmental damage, But no authority cares about the conditions of the victims. Pollution not only damages the environment but also increases the mortality rate of human beings.

We are being treated worse than animals, the government looks at the citizens of Govandi as guinea pigs. Not only do we have an ever-expanding dumping ground, but there are also multiple projects in the pipeline. A Waste to Energy plant is in the pipeline which residents and environmentalists have been opposing vehemently. Three animal pet incinerators might come up which will exacerbate the already high pollution levels.
