SRINAGAR JANUARY 22:-In a strong appeal to the local government, prominent social activist Farhan Kitab has called on the Lieutenant Governor (LG) to implement a strict ban on the disposal of garbage around water bodies and to install CCTV cameras to monitor and prevent such activities.

Farhan Kitab emphasized the urgent need to protect water resources from pollution caused by littering and illegal dumping. The activist highlighted that unchecked garbage disposal around lakes, rivers, and other water bodies not only degrades the environment but also poses serious health risks to communities relying on these water sources.

“Water bodies are vital for both ecological balance and public health. We must act decisively to stop the pollution that threatens these resources,” said Kitab. “Installing CCTV cameras will help ensure accountability and discourage individuals and businesses from dumping waste irresponsibly.”

The appeal comes amid growing concerns over environmental degradation and the increasing volume of waste contaminating water sources, which has led to calls for stronger enforcement of existing regulations.

Kitab urged the LG’s office to take immediate action by issuing clear directives to ban garbage disposal near water bodies and to deploy surveillance systems for continuous monitoring. This move, he argued, would significantly aid in preserving the environment and safeguarding public health.

The activist’s call to action is expected to resonate with environmental groups and concerned citizens who advocate for cleaner, safer natural water sites.
