Polluting unit plan scrapped [1]

SHAHNAWAZ AKHTAR

Giridih, June 8: This is probably a first in the history of Giridih.

Giving into public protests, the local administration today stalled the construction of a sponge iron unit by Shivam Group in Udnabad on pollution grounds. It also promised the villagers that no clearance would be given to any such plant in the future without a public hearing.
