The Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) is paying close attention to the car industry because of pollution. Recently, they sent five official notices to car companies in Pune. These notices are about breaking environmental rules and focus on places like Maval tehsil, Talegaon Dabhade, Warje, and Gultekdi. There are many worries about pollution in these areas.
This action by the MPCB comes after they also checked ready mix concrete plants in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad. They want to make sure that all industries follow the rules to keep the environment clean. The car companies have been warned under laws that protect our water and air. These laws require companies to follow strict rules to help the environment.
The MPCB wants car companies to take serious steps to reduce pollution, especially in how they make and service cars. Companies must build and use sewage treatment plants to clean dirty water before it goes into rivers and lakes. This is important for protecting our local environment.
These steps are part of a bigger plan to control pollution from many different types of industries. Car companies need to do more than just follow basic rules; they must also have good waste management and control how much smoke and waste they produce.
The MPCB is changing its focus from checking construction sites to looking at how car companies affect the environment. This shows that they want to tackle pollution from all kinds of industries.
Companies that received notices must act quickly to fix their problems and follow good environmental practices. The MPCB is ready to help companies understand how to meet the rules while also making sure they’re responsible for the environment.
Pune’s transportation landscape continues to evolve as authorities balance industrial growth with environmental protection measures.
