Pollution in the Punjab can be
stopped if the officials of the two departments become aware of
Sant Seechewal took Local Bodies
and Pollution Control Board Department on the target
Environment Lover Sant Balbir
Singh Seechewal addressing the Regional Environment Conference said that there
is a need to become aware of for the officials of the two departments to make
the rivers and cities clean and tidy that are being badly polluted in the
Punjab. He said that if the officials of Local Body Department and Punjab
Pollution Control Department had carried out their responsibilities properly
then neither the rivers of Punjab had been polluted nor the garbage had been
scattered everywhere in the cities. He said that the officials of the Local
Bodies Department are directly responsible for the falling of scattered garbage
and poisonous waters of big towns and cities of Punjab in the drains.
These officials have not carried
out their constitutional responsibility due to which garbage in the cities is
scattered around in great extent. When he was addressing the conference held at
Chandigarh then there National Green Tribunal Chairman Justice Adarsh Kumar
Goel, head of the Monitoring Committee Justice Pritam Pal and Justice Jasvir Singh
and many other senior officials were also present. In this conference the
officials and experts from Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab and Chandigarh were
present. Sant Seechewal made it clear that there is a need to make the people
fully aware. He raised the question that in these departments IAS officials are
appointed. Is there a need to educate them that to throw contaminated waters in
the rivers is a crime? Local Bodies Department is creating pollution and
Pollution Control Department was to stop them but the officials of the both
departments have not carried out their responsibilities. Due to their this
carelessness people are dying with dangerous diseases.
Sant Seechewal also stressed on
to fix the drinking water supply limit upto 135 liters per person. He said that
to stop the destruction of the ground water it is necessary to control the
supply. He said that the treatment plants in the cities will only run properly
if the supply of water is proper. How under the leadership of Sant Balbir Singh
Seechewal the people gathered and with
20 years karsewa the Holy Kali
Bein was cleaned. About this a documentary film was shown that how the natural
resources of water were polluted and nobody tried to stop this. Since the year
2000 with the kar sewa the Bein of Baba Nanak is again flowing with pure and
clean waters with its Old Glory.
