The Shitalakhya River is a tributary of the Brahmaputra. It has nearly become dead due to industrial waste and chemical. Hundreds of factories situated near the river are dumping garment factory waste, dyeing chemicals, polythene, printing, fertilisers, cement factory waste violating industrial and environmental laws. Toxic water that goes down the drains from those factories finally end in the river. These toxic substances mixed in river water affect the health of the people and many are suffering many diseases including skin infections and diarrhoea. Even domestic animals are affected due to toxic substances in river water, but no effective measures have been taken to improve the situation.
